Made this last night and it was soooo good I wanted to eat them all!!
The parm cheese is optional but I do eat white lower fat cheeses while I'm on phase 2 and 3 hasn't hindered my weight loss just keep in mind moderation!!
you will need:
1 lb ground chicken
3 melba toasts smashed to bread crumbs
1 whole egg
3 gloves garlic minced
3 green onions finely chopped
1 cup spinach frozen, thawed and all the water squeezed out
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 TBSP grated Parmesan cheese
pre heat oven to 375 line a baking sheet with aluminum foil( Reynolds wrap non stick foil is amazing!) combine everything in a large bowl combine well to get all the flavors distributed evenly. Next grab a palm full at a time and roll into balls place on baking sheet and press down to make a meatball/tiny chicken patty shape. Cook 20 minutes and turn them over and cook an additional 20 minutes or until outsides are brown and inside is fully cooked.
Yields about 3 to 4 meatballs per serving
this meal equals 1 veg, protein and melba toast
You can serve topped with marinara sauce or with a side of tzatziki sauce
feta cheese could also be added or substituted
ground turkey or ground beef can be used if ground chicken is not available just remember it has to be very lean
