Turkey Meatballs

This is by far my favorite meatball recipe ever. You can use these meatballs in a sauce over noodles or to make a meatball sandwich. This time I decided to make sandwiches. This recipe makes 24 regular size meatballs or 10-12 flatter sandwich size balls.

Ingredients:

1lb ground turkey

1/4 cup bread crumbs

1/2 tsp sea salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1 tsp crushed oregano

1 tsp crushed rosemary

1 cup chopped spinach (thawed)

4-5 tbsp diced garlic

2 tbsp olive oil

1/4 cup diced mushroom (optional)

1 jar marinara sauce

Directions:

Mix turkey, bread crumbs, salt, pepper, oregano, rosemary, spinach and garlic (and mushrooms if you're using mushrooms) with hands. Do not over mix as it will cause the meatballs to become tough. Over medium heat, warm oil in frying pan. Once oil is hot place meatballs in oil and brown for 3-4 minutes per side. Brown 3 sides. Drain oil and pour marinara sauce over meatballs. Lower heat and simmer 20-30 minutes. Serve.

After preparing the meatballs I saute baby portobello mushrooms and onions and toast the bun. Then put the meatballs on the bottom bun sprinkle some parmesan cheese, the sauted mushrooms and onions, and some lettuce (I use spinach).
