Talimatlar
- 1.Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Cook the 100g of quinoa according to package directions. Once cooked, set aside.
- 2.Chop the bell peppers and zucchini into bite-sized pieces. On a large baking sheet, toss them with the cherry tomatoes, 2 tbsp of olive oil, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.
- 3.While the vegetables roast, finely chop half of the red onion and mince the garlic. In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, chopped onion, minced garlic, fresh parsley, dried oregano, lemon zest, 1 tbsp of olive oil, and half of the cooked quinoa. Season with salt and pepper.
- 4.Mix the meatball ingredients gently with your hands until just combined. Form the mixture into 16-20 small meatballs.
- 5.Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and brown them on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. They do not need to be cooked through.
- 6.Add the browned meatballs to the baking sheet with the vegetables for the last 10 minutes of roasting time to finish cooking through.
- 7.To assemble for meal prep, divide the remaining half of the cooked quinoa among four containers. Top with the roasted vegetables and meatballs.
