- 1 lb ground turkey I prefer 93/7 lean
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ large red onion grated or finely chopped
- ½ cup breadcrumbs or almond flour
- ¼ cup fresh dill chopped
- ½ tablespoon dried oregano

In a large bowl, add ground turkey and minced garlic.
Grate ¼ red onion into turkey, alternatively chop red onion very small.
Add egg, breadcrumbs, dill, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined, I use my hands.
Form into 14 meatballs.
Heat sauce pan with olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add meatballs and cook for 7-8 minutes, turning constantly to ensure even cooking on all sides. Once meatballs reach 165F they are done.
While meatballs are cooking, make Tzatziki.
Serve over rice!
