Spicy Turkey Meatballs
Introduction
This recipe was adapted from Spark user IAMYIKES recipe "Spicy Low Fat Turkey Meatballs". I added liquid smoke and worcestershire sauce and sauted the meatballs in a little olive oil before baking them in the oven. These changes only added a few calories but a lot of flavor! Sauteing the meatballs in the pan makes them more like ground beef meatballs from a restaurant than turkey meatballs from your kitchen.

-
20 oz Ground Turkey, 97% Lean
¼ cup Italian Bread Crumbs
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese, freshly grated
1 Egg
1 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
1 tsp Liquid Smoke
1 tsp Garlic, minced

½ tsp Black Pepper

Preheat oven to 400°. Spray a medium baking sheet with non-fat cooking oil.
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl.

Optional: Once cooked place meatballs in a saucepan with about 2 cups of marinara or spaghetti sauce. Let the meatballs simmer for 5 minutes. (Sauce is not included in the nutritional information.)
