Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |
  • Ground Pork 160° F

Customize It Instructions

  • If using ground beef, roast until meatballs reach minimum internal temperature, 17-20 minutes.

  1. 1

    Assemble the Carrots

    Peel, trim, and cut carrot into 1/4" slices on an angle. If carrot is larger than 1" in diameter, halve before slicing.

    Place carrots on prepared baking sheet. Toss with 2 tsp. olive oil, smoked maple seasoning, and 1/4 tsp. garlic salt (reserve remaining for meatballs and mashed potatoes). Spread into a single layer on one side.

    Roast in hot oven, 12 minutes.

    While carrots roast, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Form and Add the Meatballs

    In a mixing bowl, combine ground turkey, panko, savory seasoning, 1 tsp. remaining garlic salt (reserve remaining for mashed potatoes), and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Mix until thoroughly combined. Form meat mixture into 16 equally-sized meatballs.

    After 12 minutes, carefully remove sheet from oven.

    Place meatballs on empty side of sheet and evenly top with 1 tsp. olive oil. Sheet will be hot! Use caution.

  3. 3

    Roast the Carrots and Meatballs

    Roast in hot oven until carrots are tender and meatballs reach a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees and vegetables are tender, 14-18 minutes.

    Carefully remove from oven.

    While carrots and meatballs roast, continue recipe.

  4. 4

    Heat the Mashed Potatoes

    In a microwave-safe bowl, combine mashed potatoes and remaining 1/4 tsp. garlic salt. Vigorously stir to combine.

    Microwave uncovered until heated through, 2-3 minutes.

    Carefully remove from microwave. Vigorously stir in 2/3 the softened butter (reserve remaining for gravy) until combined.

  5. 5

    Make Gravy and Finish Dish

    In another microwave-safe bowl, combine remaining butter, cornstarch, a pinch of pepper, 3/4 cup water, and chicken base.

    Microwave uncovered until heated through, 60-90 seconds.

    Carefully remove from microwave and stir to combine. If too thick, add additional water, 1 tsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping mashed potatoes with meatballs. Garnish with gravy and crispy onions. Bon appétit!
