Turkey meatballs + honey = gooey goodness. My standard recipe for turkey meatballs was missing a key ingredient this week, so rather than gambling with expired eggs I used honey for the “glue” that holds the meat and bread crumb mixture together. The results were moist meatballs with a pleasantly sweet flavor. (I didn’t overdo it – just drizzled probably 1/4 cup’s worth in the bowl.) Plus, I added dried oregano, salt and pepper.
I also credit the baking method – rather than frying in olive oil, I baked the meatballs in a pyrex dish. Healthier to boot!

Your turkey meatballs are now a staple in my freezer. I keep them in bags and use them in all kinds of ways during the week. I call them “Amy turkey balls.” I’ll try adding the honey.
That makes me so happy! We’re changing the world, one meatball at a time. 🙂

Thanks! I eat everything but I definitely crave veggies more than meat, and find them to be easier to cook with.
