Turkey Meatballs

Wow, I'm so glad I'm getting to this BEFORE the end of the month!!! This is an oldie but goodie at my house and actually, a light bulb went off when I read about Carly's chili. I was reminded of a couple of pounds of ground turkey in the freezer and Wa-La! Turkey Meatballs! Unfortunately, there is no pic so you'll just have to trust me that it looks pretty too!!!

1 lb. ground turkey

3/4 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp pepper

2-3 TBSP chopped, fresh basil

1/2 c. tomato juice

1 egg

1/4 c. chopped onion

1 cup breadcrumbs or cooked millet or quinoa

Mix and knead altogether and make into 18 or so small meatballs. Put in heavy pan and pour the following over the top:

2 c. tomato juice

1/4 tsp. dried basil or italian seasoning

salt and pepper to taste

Simmer on stove or bake in casserole dish in oven, basting a couple of times while cooking.

Serve on whole wheat spaghetti noodles.

*Tip: Add whatever vegetables you have chopped up in the fridge!
