[RDHQ Recipe Video] A Delicious Kidney-Friendly Recipe – Greek Turkey Meatballs with Tzatziki


Hi Reader
I’m excited to share a new recipe that’s perfect for your next meal: Greek Turkey Meatballs with Tzatziki Sauce!

Not only is this dish packed with bold Mediterranean flavors, but it’s also kidney-friendly and designed with your health in mind.These meatballs are made with 93% lean ground turkey, offering a lighter option that’s still high in protein. We’ve combined feta cheese, red onion, and a unique blend of oregano, dill, and cumin to create an authentic Greek-inspired taste. And to top it off, our homemade tzatziki sauce—made with plain Greek yogurt, cucumber, zesty lemon juice, and garlic—adds a refreshing, creamy contrast to the dish.

Why This Recipe is Kidney-Friendly:

Lean protein from turkey keeps it lower in saturated fat.
Fresh herbs and spices provide flavor without extra sodium.
Easy to prepare, so you can enjoy a wholesome meal without spending hours in the kitchen.
We hope this recipe adds a fresh, healthy option to your meals! If you give it a try, let us know what you think—we’d love to hear from you.
