Lady and the Tramp made meatballs iconic, but our turkey meatballs in yogurt sauce are way more super than the famous movie meatball. These little meatballs make the perfect topping for quinoa pilaf or rice, but they're also great with a toothpick as a festive, healthy party appetizer.

Cooking Recipe

Mediterranean Turkey Meatballs with Herbed Yogurt Sauce
For the meatballs:
1 pound ground turkey
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
2/3 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup low-fat ricotta
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon fresh or dried chives
1 teaspoon fresh or dried dill, chopped

Instructions:
Add all of the meatball ingredients to the bowl and mix well, being careful not to overmix.
Let the mixture sit for 15 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray generously with non-stick spray. Form 2-inch balls and place on the baking sheet.
Bake on the middle rack for 20 to 22 minutes until the meatballs are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and cool slightly.
While the meatballs are baking, make the yogurt dipping sauce by simply whisking all of the ingredients together in a small bowl.
