Turkey Meatballs




Yep, turkey meatballs! I know people are often hesitant about substituting turkey for beef, but these are pretty good! Even John gave them an 8/10 (and he likes his beef!) AND, they are less calories! So, here is the recipe:

Ingredients

  • 1.75 lbs of ground skinless turkey breast
  • 1/2 cup Italian-seasoned dried breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 eggs whites
  • 1/4 cup skim milk
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 400° F.
  2. Line a baking sheet with foil, spray with cooking spray.
  3. In a bowl, combine all ingredients.
  4. Shape and roll the mixture into balls (this makes approximately 20 meatballs)
  5. Place on baking sheet and bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until fully cooked through. Transfer the meatballs to a plate.
  6. Serve with pasta, or on a sandwich, or however you please!
