Ingredients

4 servings

For the meatballs

1 lb ground turkey
2 tsp fresh ginger, finely grated
Ingredient note
Interstitial cystitis treats warming spices like ginger as test-your-tolerance because they can irritate a sensitive bladder, but the small amount in this recipe (~1/2 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid fresh ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
1 tsp ground turmeric
Ingredient note
Turmeric can trigger interstitial cystitis symptoms in some people, but counting all uses, this recipe has about 3/8 teaspoon per serving and is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid turmeric, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
1 tsp dried oregano
½ tsp salt
1 tbsp olive oil
