Are you looking for a Weight Watchers Swedish meatballs recipe? These are only 2 Blue Points | 4 Green Points | 2 Purple Points per serving. Low on points but high on flavor, this WW Instant Pot recipe is so easy!
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp onion powder chopped
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp pepper
- 1 tsp allspice
- 4 tsp butter
- 1 ½ cup low sodium chicken broth
- 1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tbsp mustard
- ¾ cup plain Greek yogurt fat free
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped
Optional
- 2 tbsp parmesan cheese
- 1/4 tsp salt and pepper
Instructions
- In a medium sized bowl mix together ground turkey, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, and allspice. Use your hands to combine until just mixed. Then, form into 16 equal sized meatballs.
- Set your Instant Pot to sauté and add butter. Brown your meatballs for about 30 seconds per side. Brown in small batches, only one layer at a time.
- Add your broth to the hot pot and use a spatula or wooden spoon to scrape any pieces of turkey off the bottom of the pot. Add low-sodium soy sauce, and mustard.
- Close and lock the lid and place the pressure valve to sealing. Set your pot to Pressure Cook high for 5 minutes.
- When the cooking time is complete, quick release the pressure and remove the lid.
- Scoop your meatballs out and set aside. Add Greek yogurt and parsley to the warm pot and mix well. If your gravy seems watery, add some cornstarch and mix well–it should thicken up.Add the cooked meatballs back to the pot. Gently stir until the meatballs are evenly coated and serve warm. Optional, top with fresh Parmesan as desired.
Alternate meatball instructions:
- Roll meatballs and freeze for 30 minutes. Skip step 2 of directions and pressure cook for 7 minutes instead of 5.
Notes
Weight Watchers Program Information:
- A single serving of 4 meatballs and a ½ cup of gravy is only 2 Blue Plan Points | 3 Green Plan Points | 2 Purple Plan Points.
- Don’t forget to count your optional toppings.
Notes:
- Don’t over mix your turkey. Ground turkey tends to fall apart when it is over-handled.
- I like to use a spicy brown or Dijon mustard, but yellow mustard works well. They all have the same point value.
- If you want to make this recipe gluten free, swap the low-sodium soy sauce with a soy sauce alternative, like coconut aminos or Tamari.
- You can use dried parsley in place of fresh, just add it to the pot with your broth, mustard, and soy sauce.
