Spaghetti w/ a Chance of Meatballs

The Fish Fam loved these Turkey Meatballs.

As I was mixing everything together it smelled really good.
But, once they got cooking in the oven, wow, it smelled pretty awesome.

My little one exclaimed in excitement...

"Yay, spaghetti with a chance of meatballs!"

And during dinner, "Mom, I want more chance of meatballs!"

This recipe looked the best... Turkey-Spinach Meatballs.
But, I didn't have everything, so I did this...

Meatballs

• 1 large egg, beaten to blend
• ¼ small onion, finely chopped
• 1 clove garlic finely chopped
• 1½ pound ground turkey, preferably 93% lean or less
• 3 oz chopped spinach
• ½ cup finely grated Parmesan 
• ½ cup plain dried breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
• Few dashes of crushed red pepper 
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 2 tablespoons olive oil  

• 
  Preheat broiler. Cover a rimmed baking sheet with foil and coat with nonstick spray.
• Using your hands or a fork, gently mix egg, onion, garlic, turkey, spinach, Parmesan, breadcrumbs, parsley, fennel seeds, lemon zest, and salt in a large bowl just until combined. Scoop out turkey mixture by the ¼-cupful and form into balls (you should have about 20). Place on prepared baking sheet, spacing 2” apart; brush with oil.
• Broil meatballs, turning often, until browned all over and cooked through, 15–18 minutes. Add to marinara sauce.
• DO AHEAD: Meatballs with marinara sauce can be made 2 weeks ahead. Let cool completely and freeze individual portions in resealable plastic bags. Run under tepid water to loosen from bag and gently reheat, covered, until meatballs are warmed through and sauce is bubbling, 15–20 minutes.
  
  
  They came out great! 
  Next time I'll just not put so close to the broiler.

Boil your spaghetti noodles.

Add your favorite marinara sauce or make your own.

Make some breadsticks (click for recipe).

Then sprinkled everything with fresh Parmesan cheese.

And walla dinner is served...

Mangia bene, vivi felice :)
