- 6 garlic cloves, pressed
- 2 tbsp dried oregano
- 1 egg
- 1 cup breadcrumbs

For the toppings

Instructions
Make the turmeric rice
- Put a medium pot over medium heat and add olive oil. Once warm, add diced onion and cook 4-5 minutes to soften.
- Stir in turmeric powder, curry powder and salt and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently.
- Stir in the rice and stir frequently, until the rice is evenly coated, about 1 minute.
- Stir in the broth and bring to a simmer over medium high heat. Turn to low heat, place on the lid and cook until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 15-18 minutes. Remove from the heat, fluff with a fork and put the lid on again for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, remove the lid and fluff with a fork and set aside.
Make the meatballs
- Preheat the oven to 400 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Make the meatballs: Mix together the ground beef, salt, pepper, pressed garlic, dried oregano, egg, grated onion, breadcrumb and olive oil. Once combined, scoop about 2-3 tbsp at a time and form into meatballs. You'll have about 20-22 meatballs. Place the meatballs onto the sheet pan and cook for 24-26 minutes or until the meatballs are cooked through.
Assemble the meal prep containers
- Once the meatballs and turmeric rice are cooked, assemble the 6 meal prep containers / bowls by layering the rice and meatballs (about 3-4 meatballs per container) followed by dividing the rest of the toppings ingredients evenly between the 6 containers.
Notes
- Mix and match your favourite toppings as you see fit!
