Anna's Turkey Meatballs
Fall is just beginning and I am super excited to eat some real hearty food again! Not only are these turkey meatballs loaded with vegetables, but they are also incredibly filling too. If you aren't much of a turkey fan you can easily swap out the meat for chicken or even beef. Put these turkey meatballs on anything from rice to pasta. They are also delicious all on their own. Enjoy!
