Directions
Savory Turkey-Ricotta Meatballs, I’m not one to usually do turkey in my meatballs, but I saw this recipe in the recent issue of Cooking Light and decided to try since they are lower in fat. These can be used in spaghetti, substitute for beef in Stroganoff, or serve as as appetizer with warmed marinara dip, as the magazine suggests. Ricotta helps keep the lean ground turkey breast moist. Prepare them in advance, if you like, and store in the freezer for up to three months., Wonderfully and surprisingly delicious! Everything seemed so simple that I was sure I would make some adjustments for batch #2…but batch #1 was just fantastic in all of it’s deliciousness and simplicity! The fresh basil is a must! The ricotta provides a moist and wonderfully textured meatball. Made these mini-sized and served with mini cheese ravioli’s drizzled with marinara sauce and some freshly grated parmesan! Love, love, love!, My immediate reaction was: LOVE! A four letter word that has so much more gravity and depth than a whole sentence.
