These easy turkey meatballs are quick to prepare and very kid-friendly. You can serve them with pasta and spaghetti sauce or just eat them with ketchup, as my children do.

Stages of cooking
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with oil, and place it into the oven while preheating.
-
Mix turkey, bread crumbs, and egg together in a bowl with your hands. Use an ice cream scoop to form mixture into golf ball-sized meatballs.
-
Remove the baking dish from the oven. Place meatballs into the hot dish, about 1 inch apart. Press gently on each meatball to flatten the bottom just slightly.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Flip meatballs over and continue baking until somewhat crispy on the outside, about 5 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). footballgrl16
