  • 1 cup Half and half
  • 1.5 cups Chicken broth
  • 2 Garlic cloves minced

Instructions

  • Start by preheating your oven to 425 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a bowl add your meatball ingredients: ground turkey, panko, egg, 1 cup of the parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix these ingredients together and using about two tablespoons of the mixture, form your meatballs.
  • Place your meatballs on your parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for about 18 minutes or until they reach 165 degrees internally.
  • While your meatballs are baking, make your sundried tomato cream sauce.
  • To make your sauce start by adding the butter, sundried tomatoes, garlic, and Italian seasoning to your pan over medium heat. Saute for 60-90 seconds.
  • Next, add in your broth and half and half. Bring this to a simmer.
  • Once simmering, add in the other cup of parmesan and mix until the cheese has fully melted. Taste and add salt if needed
  • Now simmer to let your sauce thicken. This should take about 5 minutes or less.
  • After your sauce has thickened a bit add in your lemon juice and your spinach. Mix everything together until your spinach has wilted.
  • Add your fully cooked meatballs to the sauce and serve immediately. Enjoy!
