Swaps and serving ideas

• No spice: use BBQ sauce instead of the sweet and spicy glaze.
• Works for family dinner, a prep batch for the week, or party appetizers.

The shape

• Protein you can get fast: baked turkey meatballs
• Produce: whatever veg you serve alongside, plus green onion in the mix
• Carb you already use: brown basmati rice or quinoa

Starting vs already tracking

• Curious / restarting: one family dinner, one plate logged. That counts.
• Already tracking: the glaze has honey in it, so log the sauce along with the meatballs.
