How Do You Make Turkey Meatballs With Pasta?
Make the meatballs while the tomato sauce simmers. For juicier meatballs, use ground turkey that has both light and dark meat. Note that this recipe is very low in fat: The meatballs have just 7.3 grams of fat per serving, and the sauce has 3 grams of fat. Serves 6 (1 c. sauce and 5 meatballs). Heat oil in large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion, mushrooms, bell pepper and 6 of the crushed cloves of garlic. Sauté 5 minutes. Add wine, water, 1/4 c. parsley, sugar, oregano, basil, rosemary, 1/2 tsp. pepper, 1/4 tsp. salt, 2 bay leaves, tomatoes and tomato paste. Bring mixture to a boil. Cover, and reduce heat to simmer 30 more minutes, stirring occasionally. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Combine turkey, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, green onion, carrot, zucchini, remaining parsley, remaining 1/4 tsp. salt, remaining 1/4 tsp. pepper, egg white and remaining 2 crushed garlic cloves in a large bowl. Combine well. Take handfuls of the turkey mixture, and form into 30 1 1/2-inch meat
