Old World Style Italian Turkey Meatballs

These are excellent! I'm not a big fan of ground turkey, but I wanted to give these a try. I doubled the recipe and I used milk instead of water. I baked them in the oven at 350 for 25 minutes and they turned out perfectly. I made meatball sandwiches the first night, and then spaghetti with meatballs the second night with marinara sauce. These were a big hit. I will be making these again! Thanks for the great recipe!

This recipe is outstanding! I have an awful time trying to make ground turkey tasty. This recipe is so flavorful, that if I hadn't made them myself, I wouldn't believe they're made from turkey! I followed the recipe except that I used Italian seasoning in place of the basil & oregano. I did use the water called for and the breadcrumbs soaked it right up, so there was no probelm with them being too wet to handle. I made 12 meatballs and baked them on a non-stick rack on a cookie sheet for about 45 minutes. I'm going to freeze them and just take them out when needed. I'm just thrilled to have found this recipe!

These were delicious and a must keep recipe for my family. They were so flavorful that you couldn't even tell they were turkey. The only change I did was use 1/4 c of milk instead of water and baked it for 25-30 mins at 350 before putting them into the sauce.

learned the hard way...should have baked these before putting in the sauce. :( they started to fall apart instantly...so i gently pulled them out and onto a cooking sheet to the oven. the flavor is great...but next time will def cook them thru in the oven first.

AWESOME!!! I had to deviate from the recipe a little since I was out of basil and oregano. But I did find some Italian seasoning blend way in the back of my spice cabinet, so I used that. I doubled the recipe easily, since my kids love meatballs. I baked my meatballs in the oven at 400 degrees for 50 minutes and turned them over half way through. So fantastic! So easy to put together! Thank you so much for posting this recipe!!

I can't believe I haven't rated these. I have made these so many times because they are the BOMB!!! I never, ever make beef meatballs anymore. Whatever recipe I need meatballs for, this is the recipe. I just change the size depending on what I am making. I usually brown them in a bit of EVOO and then finish in my recipe. DELICIOUS! Thank you so much.

Very tender and delicious. I browned them first (of two pans, the non-stick worked best), then finished in the oven for an hour @ 350 (use a temp probe to make sure they're cooked). A definite keeper. Thank you for helping us bring more ground turkey into our menus!

These were really good. I did add 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder to the recipe. I cooked them in a 350 degree oven for about 35 minutes, and then added them to my spaghetti sauce. I sprayed the cookie sheet with cooking spray, but they still tended to stick, so next time I will probably add some olive oil to the cookie sheet also.

I'm a meatball fanatic, and these really are the best meatballs ever. A simple meal of these guys with pasta and a nice red sauce may just be one of my favorite dinners to make now.

Delicious, I used all Ground Turkey (white meat only) and left out the water. I felt they were very moist already and adding the water would have been too much (could have been the ground turkey I had) I also fried them till brown before adding to my sauce (just the italian in me!) very delicious! Easy and oh so yummy! thanks Farah! Italianmomof2

I love this recipe. I made it this morning. I made a few changes. I used a little over a pound of Ground Turkey and 2 hot links Italian sausage, crumbled up and I left out the water. I also used flavored bread crumbs as I had them on hands. Delicious!! Thanks for the recipe. I like it because you can work with the basic alot.:) I added the hot italian sausage because I thought it would add moistness to the meatballs and it does.

Outstanding!! These were great :) loved the seasoning in these meatballs. I used the garlic and herb seasoned breadcrumbs and I also subbed monterey jack cheese for the parmesan cheese since this was what I had on hand. I also baked these in the oven at 350' for 30 minutes. Both DH and I loved them! This is a keeper for sure :) Thanks for sharing the recipe!! (Made for the Fun Food Foto Event "O" is for October and Other)

I followed the recipe exactly as it was - besides the breadcrumbs. I just used italian seasoned breadcrumbs. I was hesitant to use any water. I thought it would make them mushy, but it didn't at all. I will definately be making these again. Thank you so much for sharing!

These are good. I love the cheese. I skipped the water b/c I didn't want them to be too soft. I used a cookie scoop and made about 30 meatballs, which I baked in the oven. They are now in the freezer awaiting a sauce...

These Meatballs were SO EASY to make and tasted super delicious!! I'm making them again! I used a store-bought sauce (sorry) but they still tasted amazing!
