Southwestern Style Turkey Meatballs (Low Carb)

1 Lb of lean ground turkey

2 eggs

½ cup extra fine wheat bran

½ jalapeño, minced (remove the seeds if you want them less spicy, keep seeds in if you prefer more spice!)

⅓ block of sharp cheddar cheese, cut into ¼ inch cubes (you can use low fat shredded Mexican blend also)

¼ cup cilantro, minced

½ red onion, chopped

1 clove of garlic, minced

1 tbs Worcestershire sauce

Heavy pinch of salt and a pepper

2 tbs olive oil

(1) Mix all ingredients except olive oil, mix thoroughly to combine

(2) heat a pan to medium heat with the olive oil in it, cool the meatballs for about 5 to 7 minutes on each side to create a crispy exterior

(3) After the outside of the meatballs have crisped, place in an oven at 350F for 15 minutes or until cooked through.

Enjoy these on their own, in a wrap or on a salad! I love these for meal prep and they last in the fridge for about 5 days.
