Instructions

  • In a large bowl, add the ground turkey, beaten egg, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and almond flour.
  • Add the onion, garlic, mint, and parsley to a food processor and chop until finely chopped. Or if you don't have a food processor, finely mince these ingredients.
  • Add the finely minced onion, garlic, and herbs to the meat mixture and stir very well to combine.
  • Using your hands, or a 1 1⁄2 inch cookie scoop (my preferred method), roll or scoop the meat into meatballs and place on a cookie sheet.
  • Preheat a large, deep skillet or soup pot on medium heat. Add the oil and allow to melt.
  • Add the meatballs to the pot or skillet and brown for about 2 minutes on each side. Then remove and set aside on a plate.
  • Add the tomatoes and 1 1⁄2 cups water with salt and red pepper flakes, and whisk to combine.
  • Add the meatballs to the sauce, reduce to a simmer, and cook for about 45 minutes.
  • After 20 minutes of simmering, add the chopped mint to the sauce and give it a stir.
