Ingredients

  • 1 - 1.5 lbs. of ground turkey the package I use is 1.2 lbs.

  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs for gluten free, I use Schar breadcrumbs
  • 1/3 cup dried parsley
  • 1 Tbsp dried basil
  • 1 - 1.5 tsp seasoned salt depends on how salty you want them
  • black pepper
  • 3 Tbsp homemade spaghetti sauce or crushed tomatoes

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine everything except the turkey and mix well.
  • Add the turkey and blend (works best with your hands)
  • Form small balls of the meat and place on a cookie sheet.
  • Bake at 400 for 15-20 minutes (this could be longer or shorter depending on the size of the meatballs).
  • If you have prepared sauce as well, place the meatballs in the sauce and simmer for a half hour (optional) .
