With all this talk about ADHD and diet I wanted to share a recipe with you all. I love to cook and I really love to eat. So, a while back I decided that I wanted to cook food that, one, I knew all the ingredients in and two, was good for me! So, the journey in the kitchen began. I've always talked about having a cookbook and that is in progress, but for now my partner and I have a food blog with tons of recipes to inspire you and get you in the kitchen. How about trying one out this week?

Tasty Turkey Meatballs

Preheat oven to 350

What you will need:
1 package ground turkey (about a pound)
1/2 red onion-chopped
1/4 c ground almond meal
1 egg
2 tsp cumin
1/2 medium sized jalapeño chopped (seeds are your choice-they make it hot)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1/8 cup fresh cilantro
1 tps cinnamon
1 tsp salt

for topping:
1 large yellow onion
olive oil
Trader Joes-salsa verde

Slice yellow onion and put in fry pan with 2 tbs olive oil, leave on low heat and cook until golden brown and soft. Stir occasionally taking care not to let them burn.

In a large bowl combine ground turkey, all seasonings and other ingredients (no salsa verde). I recommend mixing with hands to really get all the flavors blended together. Once combined, shape into 1 inch balls and place in 9x13 baking pan(not touching) and cover with foil. Bake for 15-20min. They should be firm, and juice runs clear.

Serve topped with onions and salsa verde!
