I searched this site looking for a turkey meatball recipe and made this based on the other review. It did not disappoint. In fact, these are the best turkey meatballs I have ever had- maybe even the best meatballs period- and they were prepared and cooked in no time. (I had homemade sauce on hand already.) I do not own this magazine but the recipe is available at marthastewart.com

I usually hate when reviewers say they made the recipe but changed all of these different things...but...I actually did just that. I sauteed the onions (with some minced garlic) in some olive oil first because I wasn't sure they would completely cook in the turkey in just eight minutes. I also used panko instead of fresh breadcrumbs.

The meatballs are light and flavorful. You can really taste the onions, cheese and parsley. I did as the other reviewer suggested and froze uncooked meatballs for future use. Great idea.

This is one of our absolute favourites! The meatballs are delicious and we make it using whole wheat spaghetti. I recommend making the sauce from scratch, but you could also use bottled tomato sauce. The meat balls (uncooked) also freeze very well. Form the meat balls on a baking tray and put the tray in the freezer. When the balls are frozen, place them in a Ziploc freezer bag. You can add the frozen meat balls to other pasta sauce as well.
