The Perfect Turkey Meatballs (W30, Keto, Paleo) Recipe by Healthy Little Peach
Using ground turkey instead of beef makes these meatballs super lean and the seasoning gives them a ton of flavor. They are also great on salads, over zoodles with marinara or even served with a side of scrambled eggs for breakfast.
How long will these Turkey Meatballs last in the fridge?
If stored in an airtight container, these meatballs will last up to a week. They also freeze great. Store them in a freezer proof container and they will last up to 3 months. Simply thaw, heat up and serve.
What else can you serve with these Turkey Meatballs for a complete meal for kids and adults?
These meatballs are great to eat all by themselves just as a snack, but they also serve a great meal. We recommend serving this dish over a salad for a quick lunch or even on top of spaghetti squash with marinara sauce. Another unique way to use these as a meal is to stuff a few inside a sweet potato and cover with ranch.
In conclusion, these meatballs are really perfect anytime, anywhere. Additionally, if you are looking for something other than ketchup to dip these meatballs in, be sure to check out my 4 Majestic Sauces. All of the sauces pair great with the meatballs, however, Mac’s Awesome Sauce is our favorite.
