Terrific Turkey Meatballs

Terrific Turkey Meatballs

These Terrific Turkey Meatballs are one of my all time favorite recipe.  Not only are these nuggets a consistent crowd pleaser, but also because they are packed with so many highly beneficial nutrients.  The one ingredient I would like to highlight today is one that is easy to grow in your garden, in an indoor herb pot and/or is always readily available at the store —Parsley!  This powerful disease-fighting plant is native to the Mediterranean and has a combination of amazing vitamins, flavonoids and nutrients.  Parsley also has the power to purify the blood, liver and kidneys.  It holds anti-inflammatory agents that aid in many conditions including sinus congestion, high blood pressure, kidney stones and urinary tract infections.  Wait for this...parsley contains 3 times the amount of vitamin C found in oranges!
 
Parsley is highly versatile and can be used in homemade salad dressings, salads, marinades and can act as a natural breath freshener!
Helpful tip; To increase the life of your fresh parsley, wrap it up in a damp paper towel and store in a sealed container in the refrigerator.  
 
Enjoy these terrific meatballs knowing that parsley is just one of its many nutritious ingredients — these are full of benefits that will boost your health!
