MEATBALLS 1lb package of ground turkey
1/2 cup of oatmeal
1/2 cup of chopped baby spinach (you can use frozen spinach but make sure its drained very well)
1/2 onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup reduced fat Parmesan cheese.
3 egg whites
2 cloves of minced garlic
1/2 tsp of salt and ground pepper
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine all ingredients in a medium size bowl. I find using my hands works best. Shape meatballs into balls and place on a non-stick baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, flip and bake another 10 minutes or until browned.
GREEN BEANS
Take one package of Fresh French Green beans (Walmart has the beans that can be steamed in the bag).
2 cloves of minced Garlic
2 PAM cooking spray
Sesame seeds (optional)
Steam Green beans for 2 minutes...so the beans are green and slightly crunchy.
Blanch beans by immediately plunging them into ice water to stop the cooking process. When the vegetables are completely cool, remove them from the ice bath and drain on the towel-lined plate.
Heat PAM in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until just smoking. Add beans and cook til spotted brown, stir occasionally. When beans are done, remove from heat and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve immediately
Another addition is to cut up red peppers and sautee them with the beans. Also, I use a WOK to cook my beans instead of a skillet.
