(I already cut my meatballs in half to cool before I realized I wanted to take a picture)
This is another one I got from Kelly (sorry to keep posting your recipes). I love this recipe for a few reasons. First, it requires the crockpot. This takes about 30 minutes prep time in the morning, and I don't know about you, but my mornings are always calmer than my evenings, so it is worth it to have dinner practically done by 10AM. Second, I love that it uses ground turkey. Such a healthier alternative, and by cooking it in the crockpot it stays tender and does not dry out, which is sometimes a problem substituting ground turkey.
Meatballs
1 lb ground turkey
combine with:
1 egg
less than 1/2 cup bread crumbs
onion flakes (just pour in desired amount. of course you could always use a chopped onion)
1 Tbs. parsley
1/4 tsp. poultry seasoning
1/8 tsp. black pepper
sprinkle garlic powder
Roll into 1 inch balls and brown in a skillet. Remember that you don't need to cook them through, you are just browning the sides so they will stay formed for the crockpot.
Sauce
Mix:
1 can cream of mushroom
1 cup water
1 package turkey gravy mix
1/8 tsp. thyme
the last few times I have made this, I didn't feel like I had enough sauce, so this time I doubled the sauce and was glad I did.
Pour sauce over meatballs and cook on low 6-8 hours. Serve over egg noodles or mashed potatoes.

ReplyDeleteLaura- you should take pics of food professionally- they all look really good! I want to try lots of these recipes! Way to go girls :0)
ReplyDelete**and Kelly, the pot roast was super good- well done.
it's so funny that you posted this because i was just going to post it because i made it last night. as a side note, i ALWAYS double the sauce. if not, it's never enough sauce. and last night i made it with the egg noodles, but i almost always do mashed potatoes. i didn't have time yesterday. and i'm glad you posted it because i realized i didn't take a picture. sweet.
