Clean and Lean: Sweet Chilli Turkey Balls

By 9 Comments

Now that we are back to daily workouts the increase in exercise is beginning to reflect equally in our appetites here at Casa B.

I am now in the habit of making a large batch of turkey meatballs on a Sunday and Mr B and I will gradually work our way through them throughout the week, whenever we are in need of a clean, low-fat, high protein snack.

Below is a batch I just made with a chilli twist.

Spicy Turkey Balls

If you are not a chilli fan simply substitute the spring onion and sweet chilli sauce for some finely diced shallots and a few teaspoons of dried herbs. (Oregano, basil and thyme work really well). This would be our usual batch and probably still my favourite but the recipe below makes for a nice change.
