These meatballs were very flavorful, but they were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I will try using a different type of meat next time, such as ground chicken or pork.

These meatballs were a bit dry for my taste. I think I will add more moisture next time, such as some bread crumbs or grated zucchini.

These meatballs were delicious! I used ground chicken instead of turkey and they were still very flavorful. The pesto sauce was also very good. I will definitely be making these again.
