Zucchini-Infused Elimination Meatballs

Ingredients 0/5

Step 1

Peel and cutting the sweet potatoes into chunks. Toss them into a large pot, cover with salted water, and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, lower the heat and let them simmer until they’re tender when poked with a fork — this should take about 20 minutes. Drain the water, then mash the sweet potatoes right in the pot or transfer to a big bowl. Let them cool a bit.

Step 2

While the sweet potatoes are cooling, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Next, add the grated zucchini and yellow squash to the mashed sweet potatoes. Mix in the ground turkey and sprinkle with some black pepper. Give everything a good stir until it’s all combined.

Step 3

Now, shape the mixture into meatballs about an inch in size and place them in a baking dish, making sure they’re not too crowded. Pop the dish into the oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and no longer pink inside. Let them cool slightly before serving.
