Pineapple Teriyaki Turkey Meatballs
Pineapple Teriyaki Meatballs
Makes 8 servings
- 1.5 lbs 99% lean ground turkey
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup Bragg’s liquid aminos or reduced sodium soy sauce
- 2 tbs rice vinegar
- 1/3 cup pineapple salsa* (we used the kind by Trader Joe’s)
- 1/4 cup chopped green onion
- 2 tbs psyllium husk or breadcrumbs
- 3/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1 packet stevia
For the sauce:
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 1/2 cup Bragg’s liquid aminos
- 1 packet stevia
- 1/4 tsp xanthan gum
- 1/4 cup pineapple salsa*
*if you can’t find pineapple salsa, add 1/4 cup chopped pineapple to your salsa
Mix all ingredients for the turkey meatballs until thoroughly combined. Form into 24 meatballs using your hands and place into your slowcooker (or a preheated oven at 350). To make the sauce, combine all ingredients except the salsa in a small sauce pan on medium-low heat. Cook until mixture starts to thicken, remove from heat and add your salsa. Pour sauce on top, and cook for 2.5 hours on low heat in a slowcooker, or in the oven at 350 for 30-35 minutes.
