Instructions

1
Combine spices in a small bowl.
2
Place olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add parsnips, carrots, red onions, apricots, and cashews. Cook several minutes until carrots and parsnips are tender.
3
Add tomatoes, half of spice blend and 1/2 cup of water to parsnip mixture. Allow sauce to come to a boil, then quickly reduce heat to a low simmer.

Meanwhile, place turkey, bread crumbs, half of cilantro, and remaining half of spice mixture in a bowl and mix until well incorporated.

Form turkey mixture into small golf ball sized meatballs and nestle in simmering sauce. Cook 5 minutes, then turn meatballs and cover. Cook an additional 5 minutes.

While meatballs are cooking, bring chicken broth to a boil in a medium saucepan. Pour in polenta, whisking constantly until thickened. Remove from heat.
7
Remove meatballs from sauce and set aside. Add in remaining cilantro and yogurt. Stir to combine.
8
To plate, divide and spoon polenta evenly in 4 shallow bowls. Top with 3/4 cup of veggie sauce mixture and 3 - 4 meatballs. Serve immediately.
