Recipe: Turkey Meatballs with Honey Mustard Sauce

If your children are anything like mine, they love to dip! My girls are somewhat obsessed with honey at the moment, dipping everything from their broccoli to eggs! So I made this meal especially with them in mind (as always). The dip was too sweet for Mara, but she loved the meatballs. Analese loved the dip (they are such opposites)
I modified this recipe to fit our needs. I also slipped in 1/2 tbsp of garbanzo bean flour to pump up the nutrition, and used precooked rice to hold the meatballs together. Once again, I am using turkey, but beef or ground chicken would work as well. The original recipe calls for 1/4c onion mixed in with the meat, which we omitted but I think it would be really good!

* This recipe calls for an egg, but we didn't use one tonight and it was still great. So I put it in the ingredients as optional

Ingredients

1 lb ground turkey
1/2 tbsp garbanzo bean flour
1/4 c cooked rice
1 egg (optional)
2 1/4 tsp dry mustard
1 tsp tarragon
1 cup unsweetened pineapple juice
2 tbsp honey
1 tbs potato starch

Mix thoroughly: turkey, gb flour, rice, egg, tarragon and 1/4 t of the dry mustard.
Shape into small balls. Place on a greased baking sheet, and bake at 375 degrees for about 30 minutes.
In a small saucepan, stir remaining dry mustard, pineapple juice, honey and potato starch. Cook over medium-high heat until sauce thickens and begins to boil. Serve as dipping suace for meatballs.

Enjoy!
