TURKEY MEATBALLS WITH SPINACH AND FETA
Hands-down the best baked turkey meatballs that are juicy and won't fall apart! A slice of soaked toasted bread adds moisture to the meatballs and works with an egg and some good olive oil to bind the meat mixture together. Serve these ground turkey meatballs with salad, or in my rich homemade pasta sauce over pasta or rice. Also delicious as an appetizer to feed a crowd!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Toast the bread until just brown then transfer it to a bowl and add water to cover. Allow it to soak for about 5 minutes or until very tender. Discard the water and squeeze the bread very dry and crumble it a bit with your hands.
- In a skillet heat 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil. Add the spinach and cook briefly over medium heat until just wilted. Remove from the heat and let cool briefly.
- Make the meatball mixture. In a large mixing bowl, add the ground turkey, onions, garlic, crumbled feta, egg, parsley, and mint. Add the bread and wilted spinach. Season with a big pinch of kosher salt and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
- Form the mixture into balls (golf ball size) and arrange them on a large lightly oiled sheet pan.
- Bake in the heated oven for about 30 minutes or until fully cooked through.
- Transfer to the top rack and turn the broiler on for just a couple of minutes or until the tops are browned.
- Serve immediately with salad of your choice.

THE BEST TURKEY MEATBALLS
These juicy meatballs with a tender, light texture are packed with flavorful herbs. The meat mixture is softer than you might expect, thanks to the addition of ricotta, but sacrificing a perfectly round shape is worth it. You'll make these turkey meatballs so often you just might forget about your beef meatball recipe.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and drizzle the olive oil and canola oil in an even layer over the paper.
- Pour the breadcrumbs into a large mixing bowl, pour the milk over top and stir to fully moisten the breadcrumbs. Add the remaining ingredients to the mixing bowl and mix with your hands just until combined.
- Scoop 1/4-cupfuls of meatball mixture and place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet; you should have 12 meatballs. Gently roll them into balls. Bake until bottoms are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F and continue to bake for 15 to 20 minutes more until the meatballs are cooked through.
