Ingredients
  

Turkey Meatballs

  • 1 lb ground turkey 93/7 lean
  • 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg lightly beaten
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

  • 4 cups mixed salad greens
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 2 Persian cucumbers diced
  • 1/4 cup red onion thinly sliced

Instructions
 

  • Rinse the quinoa thoroughly under cold water.
  • Add quinoa and water to a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.
  • In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
  • Mix gently until just combined and form into evenly sized meatballs about 1½ inches in diameter.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add meatballs and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until deeply golden brown and cooked through.
  • Divide cooked quinoa among serving bowls.
  • Add mixed greens over the quinoa.
  • Arrange five turkey meatballs in each bowl.
  • Add cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onion around the meatballs.
  • Sprinkle with feta cheese and Kalamata olives.
  • Top with a generous spoonful of tzatziki sauce.
  • Finish the Greek Turkey Meatball Bowls with fresh dill and cracked black pepper before serving.

Notes

  • Use homemade tzatziki for maximum freshness.
  • Serve with warm pita bread for a heartier meal.
  • Add avocado for additional healthy fats.
  • Adjust the amount of olives and feta to suit personal taste preferences.
