1 cup panko bread crumbs
1 egg, beaten
¼ cup minced onion
¼ cup minced water chestnuts
¼ cup applesauce (such as Mott's® Natural Applesauce)
¼ cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon dry mustard powder (such as Coleman's®)
½ teaspoon poultry seasoning
1 pound ground turkey
1 cup apple jelly
1 cup applesauce (such as Mott's® Natural Applesauce)

2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon brown sugar
