Everybody knows that Thanksgiving dinner means turkey. Since I don’t have the kids on Thanksgiving day every year, and since I don’t want them to get all turkey-ed out, when we make our day after Thanksgiving meal, it usually includes turkey meatballs.
And, I’ll just admit it now, we are meatball lovers, we have them a lot and in all meat varieties (turkey, chicken, pork and hamburger). This recipe is our favorite, we get lots of compliments on it; and let’s just face it, juicy, little balls of seasoned ground meat–you can’t go wrong!
Have fun making these tasty meatballs and have a great Thanksgiving!
