Spinach Turkey Meatballs
Our children call these "Gramby Meatballs" because the recipe came from my dear mother-in-law. It's a great way to make spinach palatable. I usually make a triple batch, bake them all and freeze the extras for a quick meal later. —Mimi Blanco, Bronxville, New York
Ingredients
- 1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 1 cup soft bread crumbs
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 2 tablespoons grated onion
- 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
- 1 pound ground turkey
- Hot cooked pasta, optional
Directions
- 1. In a bowl, combine spinach, egg, bread crumbs, onion and seasoned salt. Add turkey and mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into twelve 2-in. balls. Place meatballs on a greased rack in a shallow baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 20 minutes or until the meat is no longer pink. Drain meatballs on paper towels. If desired, serve with pasta.
