Directions
Lightly heat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and give it a quick spray with cooking spray to keep the meatballs from sticking. In a large bowl, toss together the ground turkey, crushed pork rinds, Parmesan, egg, parsley, garlic, onion powder, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes. Use your hands to mix everything until it's well combined. Then, shape the mixture into about a dozen meatballs, each roughly 1 ½ inches wide, and place them evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Pop them in the oven and bake for around 20 minutes, or until they're cooked through and no longer pink inside. Once they're done, take them out and enjoy!
Best Foods To Serve With This
Serve with zucchini noodles or a fresh green salad for a complete low-carb meal. They also pair well with a simple marinara sauce or roasted vegetables for added flavor and texture.
Storing This Dish
Allow the meatballs to cool completely before storing. Keep them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. They can also be frozen for up to 3 months—just reheat gently before serving.
