Turkey Meatballs with Arroz Verde

• 1 lb. ground turkey
• 1 egg
• 1 bell pepper, diced
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• ½ small onion, diced
• ½ bunch of cilantro
• 1 pkt. La Preferida Taco Seasoning or Organic Taco Seasoning 
• ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
• ½ cup water

Ingredients: Arroz Verde

• 1 box La Preferida Spanish Rice (5.25 oz)
• 2 Tbsp. La Preferida Green Enchilada Sauce
• Optional: 1/2 cup shredded queso fresco

Preheat oven to 350º

In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, egg, bell pepper, garlic, onion, cilantro, taco seasoning, and panko breadcrumbs — mix well. Take the mixture and roll meatballs to the size of a golf ball. Place meatballs on baking pan and cover with tinfoil — to prevent burning, add ½ cup of water to the pan. Heat meatballs in oven for 20-25 minutes.

While meatballs bake, prepare rice according to package instructions. Once the rice is done, add enchilada sauce and mix well.

When done, remove meatballs from oven and serve with arroz verde. Drizzle with remaining enchilada sauce and top with crumbled queso fresco.
