Description
Cocktail meatballs are a classic appetizer that everyone loves. Here, they get a healthy upgrade with high-fiber bulgur wheat and protein-rich turkey. But don't worry: They keep their sweet-and-savory sauce, with a spicy kick. If you like, you can swap truRoots quinoa into the recipe, instead of the bulgur wheat. The recipe is a Yummly original created by Sara Mellas.

Directions
- Place the bulgur and water in a small saucepan. Cover securely with a lid, and set over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat until the water is just simmering. Simmer until all the water is absorbed and the bulgur is tender, 20-25 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and fluff the bulgur with a fork.
- Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the onion. Sauté until translucent and lightly browned, 5-6 minutes.
- Transfer the onion to a large mixing bowl. Add the ground turkey, egg, salt, black pepper, nutmeg, and cooked bulgur. Use a wooden spoon to mix until the ingredients are thoroughly combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour.
