Harvest Grain Bowl with Turkey Meatballs

recipe

• Step 1
  Preheat the oven to 400°F. On a parchment-lined sheet tray, add the frozen butternut squash, salt, pepper & a drizzle of olive oil. Toss to evenly coat & spread into an even layer on one side of the tray. Add the turkey meatballs to the other side. Roast in the oven for 18-20 min, flipping halfway.
• Step 2
  As the squash & meatballs cook, wash the kale & strip the leaves from the stem. Roughly chop the leaves & transfer to a bowl with a drizzle of olive oil. Using clean hands, massage the oil into to the kale to soften & tenderize.
• Step 3
  Clean & quarter the apple. Remove the core & seeds. Dice into small cubes.
• Step 4
  Heat the rice according to package instructions.
• Step 5
  Remove the meatballs & butternut squash from the oven.
• Step 6
  In a bowl, add the massaged kale in an even layer. Top with diced apples, butternut squash, chicken & warm rice. Add crumbled goat cheese, then season everything to taste with salt & pepper. Serve with balsamic vinaigrette & enjoy!
