Turkey Meatballs

One of the ways I discovered to make my meals healthier in college was to make easy swaps for similar ingredients. Today I made meatballs, substituting ground turkey for beef and oatmeal for bread crumbs. This not only cuts down on the fat, but also adds a whole grain to keep you fuller longer.

Then, I placed the meatballs onto a greased cookie sheet using a cookie scoop, making them the perfect size. After baking, I stuffed them into a whole grain pita, sprinkled on Parmesan cheese, and added some mixed greens with a side of berries. What a quick and easy meal with lots of flavor!
