HAWAIIAN ROLY POLY (meatballs)

Anyone who knows me knows I love sweets.  However, it doesn't have to be a dessert!  I love hawaiian food because it's predominantly sweet and sour.  Here's a recipe for Hawaiian Turkey Meatballs I lovingly call roly poly because it's cuter to say!!! :)  Also, it's sweet and playful with the tangy taste of barbeque sauce.  If you don't slather your rice with the sauce, this meal is very low in calories!  Indulge and delight in this party in your mouth food!!!!

Ingredients:

Ground turkey (regular package)

Salt and pepper to taste (I use garlic salt to add that zing)

Red bell pepper slices skinny

1 8oz can of pineapple slices in juice

3/4 c. barbeque sauce - Sweet Baby Ray's is awesome!

1) Season ground turkey with salt and pepper.  Form 1 inch balls and set aside

2) In a deep frying pan, heat the pan for about 2 minutes before you add the olive oil.

3)  Fry the roly polees until brown on all sides

4)  Remove from pan and drain in paper towels

5)  In a separate medium sized pot, mix the barbeque sauce and the juice from the pinapple slices

6) Stir and bring to a bubbling boil, then add the roly polees.  Turn your heat to medium and let simmer.

7)  After it has simmered for about 5 minutes, add the red bell peppers and the pineapple slices. 

8)  Let simmer another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Best served with a little brown rice and lots of fresh veggies!!!

Mangia!!! Bon Appetit!!!  But most of all, share it and LOVE ONE ANOTHER!!!
