Como fazer Black Bean Fajita Meatball Pitas
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, mash 1 (15-ounce) can black beans until mostly smooth but still slightly chunky.
- Add 1 pound ground turkey, 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 large egg white, and 2 teaspoons lime juice. Gently mix with your hands until well combined.
- Roll the mixture into 24 golf ball-sized meatballs.
- Place meatballs on a foil-lined baking sheet lightly misted with cooking spray.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, spray a large skillet with cooking spray and set over medium-high heat. Add 1 bell pepper (any color), chopped, and 1/2 medium onion, sliced. Sauté for 5-10 minutes, until crisp-tender, tossing frequently.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, and 1 teaspoon lime juice.
- To assemble, place 2 meatballs in each pita pocket. Top with about 1/4 cup of the pepper-onion mixture, 1 1/4 tablespoons of the yogurt sauce, 1 tablespoon mashed avocado, and 1 tablespoon diced tomato.
