Turkey Meatballs w/ brown rice & peas over a bed of mixed greens

1. 1

   Heat oven to 350

2. 2

   Chop half of an onion and half of a bell pepper... for those halves you'll placed one-half aside for meat & the other half for the pan... or you can use a whole onion & whole bell pepper & chop in halves - one section for meat & the other section placed aside

3. 3

   Grab a bowl for the ground turkey & mix meat, seasonings, egg, 6 crackers or oatmeal, and chopped onion & bell pepper... mix ingredients & then add more seasonings if preferred

4. 4

   Grab a pan that's big enough to hold 10 to 13 meatballs; cover the pan in foil end to end & place 5 Tb of butter or margarine in the pan along with the other portion of chopped onion & bell pepper, & place in oven to melt butter

5. 5

   Remove pan as soon as butter is completely melted & place meatballs in the pan (roll meatballs in butter); pan should be covered end to end with 10 to 13 meatballs (or however many desired or able to make), & then sprinkle just enough frozen peas to cover the pan as well end to end... do not need a whole lot of peas just a little; place pan back in oven

6. 6

   On the stove top grab a small pot and add 1 cup of Minute brown rice & just enough water to cover the rice but not drowning the rice (if that makes sense) & cook on medium to high heat; will need to watch because when water cooks all the way out, place a lid on the pot & let sit until ready for use

7. 7

   One hour & thirty minutes for meatballs to cook (or until they have a crispy-brown like texture) & remove from oven

8. 8

   Grab a plate & bed the plate with the mixed greens or lettuce; add a little brown rice over the greens to cover a little bit; place three meatballs in the center of rice to cover, & place peas and onion & bell pepper along the sides for the pretty look (or garnish)... bon apetite
