It is also low in sodium. Very easy to make meatballs in advance and freeze them. Sometimes I only use half the meatballs from this recipe, and freeze the other half for another soup recipe. Great way to use the left over rice from Chinese take-out. Ingredients:
1 lb ground turkey (or ground pork) |
1 tablespoon dried basil (or 2 tbl fresh basil) |
1 tablespoon dried oregano |
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt |
3 carrots |
2 cups cooked rice |
16 ounces vegetable broth or 16 ounces chicken broth |
1/4 cup water |
sunflower oil or safflower oil |
salt |
pepper |
Directions:
1. Mix meat with spices. Roll into small balls the size of your thumb.
2. Add oil to skillet and saute' meatballs.
3. Chop carrots 1/2 inch thick. Leave juice in pan, add 1/4 cup of water. Add carrots to pan, cover and cook until carrots are tender.
4. Heat broth in stock pot. Add rice, meatballs, carrots and juice from pan. Stir and eat!
