Turkey-Veggie Meatballs image

I love this meat ball recipe and have been making it for years. My Father is Italian, and this reminds me of a lighter version of the meat balls he made when I was a kid. This recipe is from Cooking Light. ( I have also made this using a combination of beef, sausage, and/or ground turkey as well)

Meh, these meatballs were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't great either.

These meatballs were good, but I found them to be a bit dry. I think next time I'll add some more moisture to the mixture.

These meatballs were a great way to use up some leftover turkey. They were also a healthier alternative to traditional meatballs.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my meatballs turned out really dry. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

These meatballs were good, but I found them to be a bit dry. I think next time I'll add some more moisture to the mixture, such as some grated zucchini or applesauce.

I'm not a huge fan of turkey, but these meatballs were surprisingly good! The vegetables helped to balance out the flavor of the turkey, and the meatballs were nice and moist.

These turkey veggie meatballs were a hit with my family! They were so easy to make and tasted delicious. I especially loved the addition of the grated vegetables, which gave the meatballs a nice texture and flavor.
