Annnnnnyyyyyyywaaaaaaaays.................In my struggle I had ground turkey meat and wanted to make something with it. Lucky I had tomato sauce and parmesan cheese......spaghetti and meatballs!! Hold up! Wait a minute!! Meatballs are made with eggs.......I don't have eggs. :(
Looked up an eggless turkey meatballs, and it seemed simple......like real simple; turkey meat, oregano and parsley. But I didn't feel like this was enough for me, and I know poultry can get dry when cooking. So I added a little more and they ended up delicious!!
So whats the secret?.....I used olive oil to keep the moisture in, especially since I decided to bake the meatballs. I also tried making meatballs without olive oil, they were good but dry.....so I know!!!
Spices : Salt, Pepper, Cayenne Pepper, Dried Rosemary, Dried Thyme, Dried Onions, Garlic Powder, Parsley and Oregano. |
1 lb ground turkey 1/4 cup parmesan cheese 2 tbsp olive oil *Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients together, including spices. Spices roughly are about 1tsp each. |
Take a aluminum foil lined cookie sheet (the foil helps with clean up) and scoop and roll small handfuls of meat into balls. |
Bake for 25-30 minutes. Half way through, take meatballs out and turn over. Resume cooking. |
Enjoy as an appetizer, or add to pasta dish with tomato sauce for a classic dinner. ENJOY!!!!! |
