Steps:
- In a medium size pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and saute until golden, being careful not to burn. Add crushed tomatoes, onion, salt, pepper, oregano, basil and bay leaf. Stir and reduce heat to low. Cover and let simmer on low 5-10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, parsley, garlic and cheese. Using wet hands, mix all the ingredients well until everything is combined. Form small meatballs, about the size of a ping ping ball (1/8th cup each).
- If you wish, you can brown the meatballs in a skillet, or brown them in the broiler on a sheet pan until the tops are golden, 7 to 8 minutes. OR you can gently plop them right into the sauce.
- Add the meatballs to the sauce and cook about 20 minutes. Discard the bay leaf and onion and serve over pasta or whole wheat Italian bread.

LIGHTENED UP TURKEY MEATBALLS AND SAUCE
This won grand prize in that's Amore contest for Taste of Home's Healthy Cooking magazine. This will appear in the Aug/Sept issue, and there will be a mini write up on me also. This week I received a surprise from the folks at Taste of Home's healthy cooking a complimentary copy of the annual recipes in hardcover. This recipe is on the cover. Basically it is a recipe for meatballs that are lightend up by using ground turkey and baking the meatballs instead of frying. They changed it bc of sodium perimiters to 1 can of tomato sauce, I would never do it that way.

- In a mixing bowl, add the ground turkey, panko, egg, dried minced onion, parsley, salt, nutmeg, allspice, garlic powder, and pepper and mash together until well combined. With clean hands, roll the meat mixture into 12 evenly sized meatballs.
- Drizzle the olive oil into a large saute pan or skillet and bring over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the meatballs in a single layer with a bit of space in between them. Cook, flipping them every 1-2 minutes to brown all sides, for 8 minutes. Cover the pan and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook the meatballs covered for an additional 2-4 minutes until cooked through. Remove the meatballs to a side plate and cover with aluminum foil to keep warm.
- Add the butter to the pan and bring over medium-low heat until melted. Add the flour and whisk the flour and butter together until combined (it will become sort of like a paste). Whisk in the broth a little at a time to combine it smoothly. Add the Worcestershire sauce, mustard, bouillon, dried parsley, and paprika and whisk into the sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring regularly, and then reduce the heat to low to simmer. Simmer uncovered for a few minutes until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and whisk in the sour cream until smoothly combined. Add the meatballs back in and stir to coat. Return to low heat for 1-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meatballs are heated through.

- In a large bowl, mix together all of the meatball ingredients until fully combined. I find the meatballs have the best texture if you use a handheld food chopper or food processor to mince the onion and garlic as finely as possible. You can knead the mixture with your hands until just combined, or mix it in a stand mixture with a paddle attachment.
- Form balls with the meat, one heaping tablespoon at a time. Drop them onto a cookie sheet as you form them. You should be able to make about 24 balls. If your meatballs seem too soft to keep their shape in a pan, place your cookie sheet in the freezer for 5 minutes.
- Heat nonstick spray in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the meatballs on all sides until they are cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove meatballs from the saucepan and set aside. Make sure you save all of those delicious browned bits sticking to the bottom!
- Melt the butter in the skillet. Whisk in the flour and cook for a minute. Pour in the broth, whisking constantly, until everything is incorporated. Simmer until thickened and glossy, about 10 minutes. Add in the milk, mustard, pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Simmer until thick and creamy, about another 5 minutes.

- Place the ground turkey, chopped parsley, Worcestershire, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, egg and the breadcrumbs in a large bowl. Mix until the ingredients are combined.
- Let the oil cool off some. Carefully drain all the oil from the skillet but do not wash or wipe. If there are bits on the bottom of the pan, leave them in there. They will flavor the gravy beautifully.
