I eat greek chicken bowls all of the time so I figured I’d switch these up a bit! These greek turkey meatballs are so flavorful and perfectly paired with this dairy free tzatziki sauce!

what you’ll need:
1lb ground turkey
Fresh dill
Fresh parsley
Thyme (I used dried)
Onion powder
Minced garlic
Plain unsweetened coconut yogurt
English cucumber
1 Lemon
Tomatoes
1 Red onion
Brown rice
Instructions:
To make the meatballs:
To a bowl, add ground turkey, 1 tablespoon of fresh dill chopped, 1 tablespoon of fresh parsley chopped, 2 teaspoons of dried thyme, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 2 teaspoons of minced garlic, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Mix well then form into balls. They don’t have to look pretty..they will taste the same either way ;)
Add avocado oil to the pan on med-high head and sear the meatballs on all sides. Cook for about 10-12 min until they are fully cooked.
To make the tzatziki sauce:
Mix the below ingredients
1 cup coconut yogurt
Juice of 1 medium lemon
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
1 English cucumber (grated and water squeezed out)
1 tsp minced garlic
I like to let this sit in the fridge once mixed for a little bit and let the flavors come together!
Once the meatballs and sauce are done serve with chopped cucumber, tomato, brown rice and a fresh squeeze of lemon over everything. Enjoy!
