Olives and turkey meatballs? Say what?
Those might not be the first two things you’d think to pair together, but they actually combine to make a nutritious and savory meal!
Turkey meatballs are a healthy alternative to their regular counterpart, and of course, they’re packed with a good amount of protein. The olives inside add a bold layer of flavor to an already scrumptious dish.
Switch the pasta out for some veggies for a complete meal!
Ready for this Italian treat? You won’t be disappointed!
