Turkey Kale Meatballs
My daughter went to a cooking demo at Delicious Dish Cooking School and these Turkey Kale Meatballs are one of the dishes that were made. She gave me the recipe and I made them for my family who gave them 👍🏻👍🏻 .
Did you know that adding kale to meatballs acts as a great binder. You’re welcome.
These are perfect for Passover or anytime. They are dairy free, grain free, egg free and I’m told very delicious (I don’t eat meat).
