Ingredients

  • 2 pound ground turkey
  • 1 large onion shredded
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper ground
  • 3/4 cup breadcrumbs I used Panko
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon parsley dried

Instructions

  • Prepare your oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat.
  • Make the meatballs: Add all the meatball ingredients to a medium bowl. I like to get in there and use my hands to make sure everything is evenly dispersed. Roll turkey mixture into about 48 meatballs, about 1-inch balls and place them on the rack.
  • Bake the meatballs: Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake for about 30 minutes or until they are completely cooked through.

Notes

Leftovers: Store meatballs in an airtight container anywhere from 3 to 5 days.
Freezing: To freeze cooked meatballs simply place them in an airtight container and freeze for up to 3 months. You can also flash freeze your meatballs first by placing them on a baking sheet in a single layer and freeze them for a couple hours or until completely frozen. Then simply store them in an airtight container and freeze for up to 3 months. This will ensure that the meatballs don’t stick together.
