Ingredients
- 2 cup coarsely chopped zucchini
- 1 cup coarsely chopped summer squash
- 1 pound extra lean ground turkey
- 1/2 cup uncooked couscous
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes
- 1/2 cup barbecue sauce, or as needed
Directions:
1. | Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray 20 muffin cups with cooking spray. |
2. | Place zucchini, summer squash, and sun dried tomatoes into a food processor, and pulse several times until finely chopped but not liquefied. Place the vegetables into a bowl, and mix in ground turkey, couscous, egg, Worcestershire sauce, and herbs and spices of your choice until thoroughly combined. Fill each prepared muffin cup about 3/4 full. Top each cup with about 1 teaspoon of barbecue sauce. |
3. | Bake in the preheated oven until juices run clear, about 25 minutes. Internal temperature of a muffin measured by an instant-read meat thermometer should be at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Let stand 5 minutes before serving. |
This was a great low carb, low cal meal. To get the carbs I needed I simply whipped together some garlic mashed potatoes and steamed the rest of the vegetables as a filler. Super simple recipe, tastes amazing :)
