Sweet Potato Turkey Meatballs

    It's been a rough couple weeks. I've been battling back problems and it looks like I'm going to have to clean up my diet a bit and loose some weight. So, here it goes! Who would have thought how good healthy meatballs could taste! You are going to want to cook and mash your sweet potato ahead of time. These would be great as an appetizer or served over pasta! You could even make a meatball sub with them! I made a batch and put half of them in the freezer for later.


Sweet Potato Turkey Meatballs
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of mashed sweet potato
- 1 pound of ground turkey
- 1 cup of seasoned breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon of ketchup
- 1/2 teaspoon of allspice
- 1 small onion, diced (about 1/2 cup)
- 2 tablespoons of fresh chopped parsley
- 1 teaspoon of minced garlic
- salt and pepper to taste 
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix together all ingredients. Form into 2 inch meatballs and place on a greased baking sheet. Bake meatballs for about 35- 40 minutes or until cooked through and golden brown.
