Ingredients

• 1 lb minced turkey

• 1 large grated carrot (about 1/2 cup)

• 1/2 cup pumpkin purée or sweet potato

• 1/3 cup kale or spinach

• 1 egg

• 1 tsp turmeric

• 1 cup ground oats (or flour)

Directions

• Preheat oven to 375 F
• In a large mixing bowl combine turkey, carrot, pumpkin, turmeric and egg. Mix that together and then slowly add the oats or flour until all combined.
• Mixture will be sticky but should still be workable and you should be able to roll into balls. If too sticky add more oats or flour.
• Roll into balls and place on baking sheet or pan.
• Bake for 30 mins. Remove from oven and let cool. Once cooled serve immediately or keep covered in fridge for up to 1 week.
