Healthy Italian Turkey Meatballs Recipe
My daughter loves meatballs! She has enjoyed them since she was a toddler so I’m always looking for a great turkey meatballs recipe so that we aren’t eating the same thing day in and day out. This is a very easy recipe for a healthier meatball. Once the meatballs are made you can do just about anything with them such as put them in spaghetti, eat them as an appetizer, or my daughter just eats meatballs for dinner!
If you want to cut down on the sugar you can choose a different spaghetti sauce. This is my favorite turkey meatballs recipe because I love the taste of seasoned Italian meat. It adds a delicious flavor instead of your standard hamburger — for me, this is the perfect Italian turkey meatballs recipe. This is also a great recipe when you are trying to create healthy alternatives. If you just can’t get away without adding a little bit of carb to your dinner or lunch you can always add whole grain pasta to your meal. Eden Kamut Spiral Pasta is my favorite!

These turkey meatballs have a lot of flavor, the seasoned turkey makes a difference. My kids prefer them plain with no sauce. I like to make a batch and take them with a healthy vegetable side for an easy-to-grab lunch.
