Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 28 minutes
Servings 5 people

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1/2 cup GF breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg whole
  • 3 tablespoons ranch seasoning
  • salt
  • red pepper flakes optional
  • Hot sauce optional
  • 1 cup rice rinsed
  • 1 lb green beans trimmed
  • avocado oil spray
  • Fresh parsley chopped

Instructions

  • Rinse rice and cook as desired. I prefer cooking my rice in the instant pot in a 1:1 ratio with cold water. Cook at medium pressure for 3 minutes, natural release for 10 minutes. Manual release rest of pressure and it's perfect every time. Recipe here for more details: https://www.pressurecookrecipes.com/instant-pot-rice/
  • Mix all meatball ingredients together. Make into balls and put on greased bakings sheet. Bake on 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Spread green beans out on a sheet pan. Sparywith avocado oil spray. Season with salt. Roast at 425* for 15 minutes. (Steam beans if you don't have access to a separate oven for roasting temp)
  • Cover meatballs with hot sauce if desired. I keep the hot sauce off initially and bring the bottle to the table.
  • Serve with rice and roasted green beans
