Turkey Blue Cheese Meatballs/Loaves
Here’s a recipe Dawna sent me. She is taking the Paleo thing seriously, so keep an eye on her to make some great gains!
Ingredients:
4 cloves garlic
1/2 onion, cut into chunks
2 jalapeno peppers, halved and seeded
1 pound ground turkey
4 oz bleu cheese
2 whole eggs
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons wheat free Tamari (or wheat free soy sauce)
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 tsp ground black pepper
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and set aside.
- Pulse garlic cloves in a food processor until minced. Add onion and jalapeno, and pulse until minced again. Scrape the onion mixture into a large bowl along with the turkey, blue cheese, eggs, and olive oil. Season with tamari, dried parsley, Italian seasoning, and pepper. Mix well.
- Roll the mixture into 2 inch balls, and place onto prepared baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 25 minutes. These can also be prepared in a muffin pan for mini meatloaves or in a loaf pan for a full sized meatloaf. (Be sure to place on a baking sheet or tin foil to avoid a mess)
