Chef's Note

For extra flavor, you can add 1 tablespoon of grated parmesan cheese directly into the meatball mixture. If you're meal prepping, these meatballs freeze beautifully - just store them separately from the rice and broccoli for best results when reheating.

Ingredients
  • 8 oz ground turkey

  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs

  • 1 large egg

  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

  • 1/2 tsp onion powder

  • 1/4 tsp dried oregano

  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 3/4 cup brown rice

  • 1 1/2 cups water

  • 1 cup broccoli florets

  • 1/4 cup marinara sauce

  • 2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

Instructions
  • 1

    In a medium saucepan, combine 3/4 cup brown rice with 1 1/2 cups water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until water is absorbed and rice is tender.

  • 2

    While rice cooks, in a medium bowl, combine 8 oz ground turkey, 1/4 cup breadcrumbs, 1 large egg, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp onion powder, 1/4 tsp dried oregano, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.

  • 3

    Form the turkey mixture into 8-10 meatballs, about 1.5 inches in diameter.

  • 4

    Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally until browned on all sides and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).

  • 5

    While the meatballs are cooking, steam 1 cup broccoli florets in the microwave or in a steamer basket for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp.

  • 6

    Heat 1/4 cup marinara sauce in a small microwave-safe bowl for 30 seconds until warm.

  • 7

    Assemble the bowl: Place the cooked rice on the bottom, add the broccoli to one side, and arrange the meatballs on the other side. Pour the warm marinara sauce over the meatballs and sprinkle with 2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese.
