greek spinach & feta turkey meatballs

these greek spinach & feta turkey meatballs come together quickly and can be served up in so many different ways making them a fast favorite!

So the other day I went to remake my feta & spinach turkey meatballs but I ended up making some tweaks as I went (I just can’t help myself!) and it turned out to be a pretty different recipe so I’m dedicating a whole new post to it!

These meatballs are quick, easy, full of flavor and can be served up in so many different ways.

They’re melt in your mouth tender and go well over cooked orzo (or other pasta!), eaten atop a greek salad, thrown into pita bread with tzatziki, tomato and cucumber salad…the list goes on.

If you’re not a big fan of turkey, you can swap out chicken, lamb or even ground beef if you prefer (if you’re not a meat eater, I recommend you try these greek walnut sliders!).

These keep well in the fridge for 3-4 days or in the freezer for a few months so you can make them ahead and have them on hand for easy meals!

Nothing better than a meal comes together quickly, can be made ahead and served up in a bunch of different ways!

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground turkey

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Combine everything into a large bowl and mix well to combine (I like to put on gloves and just get in there with my hands, but you can use a wooden spoon if you prefer)
3. Use a cookie scoop and roll mixture into balls (~1-2 tbsp. per ball) and place onto prepared baking sheet.
4. Bake for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking.  Meatballs are done when browned on both sides and an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
5. Serve with desired toppings.

Notes

• Meatballs will keep for 3-4 days in the fridge and 3 months in the freezer.
