Ingredients
-
cooking spray
-
2 cups coarsely chopped zucchini
-
1 ½ cups coarsely chopped onions
-
1 red bell pepper, coarsely chopped
-
1 pound extra lean ground turkey
-
½ cup uncooked couscous
-
1 large egg
-
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
-
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
-
½ cup barbecue sauce, or as needed
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray 20 muffin cups with cooking spray.
-
Place zucchini, onions, and red bell pepper into a food processor, and pulse several times until finely chopped but not liquefied. Place the vegetables into a bowl and mix in ground turkey, couscous, egg, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard until thoroughly combined.
-
Fill each prepared muffin cup about 3/4 full. Top each cup with about 1 teaspoon of barbecue sauce.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until juices run clear, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of muffins should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
