Turkey Pistachio Meatballs are a flavorful fusion of lean ground turkey, crushed pistachios, garlic, onion, parsley, and warm spices like cumin and paprika, inspired by Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine. The pistachios lend a nutty, rich texture while adding a boost of heart-healthy fats, fiber, and plant-based protein to the dish. Using turkey as the base makes these meatballs lower in fat compared to traditional red meat options, while still providing a good source of lean protein for muscle repair and sustained energy. Fresh herbs and spices enhance the flavor without the need for heavy sauces, keeping the recipe light and vibrant. While nutrient-dense, the sodium content may vary based on seasoning or added dips, so it's ideal to pair them with vegetable sides or salads for a balanced meal. Perfect as an appetizer or a main course, these meatballs offer a delicious and nutritious twist to classic meat dishes.
