Útmutatók

Make the corn salad:

Spread frozen corn on an oven tray and grill in the oven. Once charred, take out and pour olive oil and garlic powder over. Let cool until safe to handle.

Lower the oven temp and change to fan forced. Then large baking sheets with unbleached parchment paper. Set aside.

In a large bowl, add ground turkey, zucchini, eggs, garlic, onion flakes, oregano, salt and pepper. Mix with your hands just until combined and do not overmix.

Using small trigger scoop, form 47 meatballs (it helps to dip hands into a bowl with cold water occasionally) and lay on previously prepared baking sheets.

Bake for 15 minutes, turn and toss with spatula (mostly to get rid off of that ground turkey residue) and bake for 5 more minutes.

In a large salad bowl, add corn, red onion, kale, tomatoes, cilantro, cotija cheese, lemon or lime juice, garlic, yogurt, mayo, smoked paprika, salt, cayenne and black pepper to taste.

Stir gently and serve warm or cold.
