These are great in spaghetti and for meatball sandwiches. They freeze well, too.
Ingredients:
Cooking spray
1/2 lb. ground turkey or chicken
1/2 lb. ground Italian sausage
1 egg, beaten
1/3 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Lightly grease a baking pan with cooking spray.
In a medium bowl combine the remaining ingredients and mix together using your hands.
Form golf ball size meatballs and place on the prepared baking sheet about one inch apart.
Bake for 15 minutes and then turn over and bake for another 5 minutes.
What did the family think? These are so easy and the family acts like I am some sort of gourmet because I made them homemade meatballs. They loved them!
Okay, I feel really stupid now, but is sausage typically pork? My mother doesn’t eat pork, so my real question here is, what do you think would work best instead of the sausage? I LOVE the simplicity of this recipe!
We don’t usually eat pork either. I always get either turkey or chicken Italian sausage. I think it’s just as good as the pork.
Hope that helps! 🙂
