A Turkey Meatballs Recipe Everybody Will Love
This turkey meatballs recipe is one of my kids’ favorites, because they can’t stop devouring it every time I make it. I serve these meatballs with white rice and broccoli, or with pasta and some parmesan cheese.
Turkey is a lean protein, which is great. When it’s well seasoned, it’s simply delicious!
Added bonus: these turkey meatballs are super easy to make because they are not fried. You just bake them and finish cooking them with a yummy tomato sauce. Once you try them, you’ll understand why I love this recipe so much.
