INGREDIENTS

4.5 oz 99% lean ground turkey

0.75 cup liquid egg whites

1 cup asparagus spears

1 tbsp nutritional yeast

1 tsp Italian seasoning

0.5 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp lemon juice

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

• 2

  In a medium bowl, combine the ground turkey, nutritional yeast, and half of the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 3

  Roll the turkey mixture into small, bite-sized meatballs and arrange them on one side of the prepared baking sheet.

• 4

  Place the trimmed asparagus spears on the other side of the sheet, seasoning them with the remaining dry spices and lemon juice.

• 5

  Whisk the liquid egg whites in a small bowl until slightly frothy and carefully pour them over the asparagus to create a protein-rich bind.

• 6

  Roast in the center of the oven for 15 to 18 minutes until the meatballs are cooked through and the egg whites are set and lightly browned.
