These tender baked turkey meatballs are made with fresh guacamole and smoky chipotle peppers in adobo sauce.

Everyone loves meat on a stick.. you guys made that loud and clear when I recently shared my Thai Beef Satay Skewers! Well, guess what? I’ve got more for you this week with these tender and addictive five-ingredient baked turkey meatballs!

Made with lean ground turkey, fresh Sabra guacamole, chipotle peppers and garlic… three of these baked meatballs are just 99 calories! Who said game day snacking can’t be healthy?
Which leads me to our week 5 challenge of the Healthy New Year Six-Week Challenge: Healthy Game Day Snacking! As a reminder, in week 1 we covered protein-packed breakfasts, week 2 was all about ethnic eats, in week 3 we challenged you to use a new type of protein and in week 4 we used lemon to reduce sodium.

The next time you’re at the store grab a container of Sabra’s guacamole and try using it as an ingredient in your next batch of meatballs. The healthy fats in the avocados keep the lean turkey from drying out without having to fry them in oil. Made with fresh garlic, onions and lime juice, the meatballs come out juicy and delicious every single time.
