Kung Pao Style Turkey Meatballs




Kung Pao Style Turkey Meatballs


Ingredients for meatballs:

1# Lean ground turkey

2 cloves minced garlic

1 teaspoon minced ginger

1/2 cup finely minced onion

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1 Tablespoon Chili Garlic Sauce (I used this: http://www.amazon.com/Huy-Fong-Chili-Garlic-18/dp/B000LO25RG)

1 whole egg, beaten

4 Tablespoons flour

1/3 cup old fashioned oats


Sauce:

3 Tablespoons lower sodium soy sauce

2 Tablespoons Sriracha

1 Table spoon garlic chili sauce (same as above)

3 Tablespoons honey

1/2-1 Tablespoon sesame seeds


Method:


1: Preheat oven to 400F

2: Line a large cookie sheet with foil (I used the non stick foil and needed no oil spray)

3: Mix turkey, garlic, ginger, onion, salt, pepper, garlic chili sauce, egg, flour and oats until well combined.

4: Form meatballs. Use a tablespoon measure to size. I got 18-20 meatballs from this mixture.

5: Place on cookie sheet and bake for 25 minutes, turning once half way to brown evenly.

6: Mix sauce ingredients in a large enough bowl to hold cooked meat balls for coating.

7: When meatballs are cooked, add to the sauce bowl and toss gently to coat... serve with remaining sauce drizzled over them.

Makes 4 servings.

Peanut Butter Banana Bread

Ingredients: 4 very ripe bananas, mashed 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter 3/4 cup sugar 1 egg, beaten 1 teaspoon vanilla 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon baking soda Pinch of salt 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour Method: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Mash bananas in a large mixing bowl with a fork until fairly smooth. Add in the peanut butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla and combine well. Add in the cinnamon, baking soda and salt and mix again. Lastly add the flour, mix well. Pour the mixture into a buttered 4x8 inch loaf pan. Bake for about 1 hour. When a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean, the bread is done. Cool on a rack. Remove from pan and serve! Makes one loaf. Kitchen Notes: If you don't like peanut butter, you can make this into a more traditional banana bread by substituting 1/3 cup melted butter, margarine or applesauce (keeps the bread moist without the added fat) for the PB. Variations my family likes: 1/2 cup of shredded coconut. 3/
