This was different for us. I think I would leave out the potato next time, season the turkey a little more and brown the meatballs before baking the casserole. Thanks for posting the recipe.

I followed the recipe but replaced diced tomatoes with ROTEL spicy diced tomatoes and flavored with some Cajun seasoning. As a result, I really enjoyed the result and it was easy.
