Ingredients
Scale
- 10 ounces cauliflower florets
- 10 ounces broccoli florets
- 12 ounces sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into ½ inch pieces
- 4 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
- black pepper, to taste
- ⅓ cup panko breadcrumbs, plain, or gluten-free
- 2 tablespoons chicken bone broth, or water
- 1 large egg
- ¼ cup parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoons cumin
- ½ teaspoons sweet paprika
- ½ teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 lb 93% lean ground turkey
- ½ cup hummus, i love supremely spicy for heat or roasted pepper hummus
- 2 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
- fresh dill, optional for topping
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges
- ½ small red onion, thinly sliced
- ¼ cup red wine vinegar
- 3 tablespoons water
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F and adjust the center racks accordingly.
- Spray a large sheet pan with oil, add sweet potatoes, drizzle with 1 teaspoon oil, and season with ¼ teaspoon salt, mixing well and spreading out. Roast for 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine cauliflower and broccoli with 1 tablespoon olive oil and ¼ teaspoon salt, tossing to coat evenly.
- In another large bowl, mix panko, chicken broth, egg, parsley, and spices along with the remaining 1 teaspoon salt.
- Add the ground turkey to the mixture and combine using a fork, being careful not to overwork the meat. Form into 12 meatballs using wet hands and place them on a smaller lined sheet pan.
- Remove the sweet potato pan from the oven, stir, and push the sweet potatoes to one side. Add the broccoli and cauliflower, ensuring everything has some space. Return to the oven with the meatballs.
- Bake until the meatballs are cooked through and veggies are tender, approximately 20 to 25 minutes. Broil the meatballs for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until browned, and sprinkle vegetables with a pinch of salt.
- Soak the sliced onion in vinegar, water, and salt in a small bowl for at least 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly pickled. Drain.
- To serve, share the meatballs and vegetables among 4 bowls. Top the veggies with pickled onions and feta, add 2 tablespoons of hummus to each bowl, and finish with fresh dill and lemon juice.
