Kale & Cranberry Breakfast Muffins
(Makes 14 muffins)

1 1/2 lbs. ground turkey
2 cups baby kale, tightly packed when measuring, chopped
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp. onion powder
1 tbsp. garlic powder
1 cup dried cranberries (I used fruit juice sweetened from Whole Foods)
1/2 cup whole wheat bread crumbs (I used whole wheat Panko, but you can also make your own)
1 egg or 2 egg whites (optional: Only if the mixture seems very dry. This will depend on how much water is in the turkey)
Salt to taste after cooking

Blend all ingredients together with your hands in a large mixing bowl and portion out into baking papers/cups or a non-stick muffin tin. The mixture should not go over the top of the baking papers.

Bake at 350 F. for approximately 35-40 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of at least 165 F.

Allow to cool for a bit as they tend to really retain their heat.
