Foodtv.com has great turkey meatball recipes. The frozen are too tough for me. I bake moist meatballs with various ingredients. Very easy to make and cheaper than store bought meatballs.

I do make turkey meatballs now but they are tough,.  I need to know how to make them softer and juicer so that I can eat them after my surgery 11/21.  I make mine with turkey egg whites and crackers and they are very tightly formed .

This is a recipe I use often.

1 pound turkey meat
1 egg
1/2 cup bread crumbs
2 tablespoons fresh parsley
1/2 grated onion (grated onion produces juice from onion)
Sometimes, I add 1/2 cup shredded parm cheese if using marinara sauce.

I do not manipulate meat mix too much! It causes tough meatballs. I bake for 15 minutes then I add any sauce and continue cooking 10 minutes. I hope this helps!

Do you use the store bought bread crumbs or do you just make your own by tearing up bread.?  I have never put onion in mine.  But I will now.  I dont know why I have never thought of that.  You use the entire egg.  I am guessing after you loose so much weight and your helath gets back on track  eliminating egg yokes for cholesterol watch is not a major concern any more.  I am looking forward to this.

are the ones you make not soft and juicy?  If so you might omit the crackers since it's the crackers that usually are there as a filler to absorb moisture.  MY meatballs, loaf etc I basically just use ground turkey (pork, beef, sausage depending), grated onion, chopped bellpepper (which I saute to soften) and an egg.  I roll them into balls and usually just cook in a skillet on top of the stove.

Yes, you are absolutely right.  I have been adding too much cracker crumbs trying to stretch out that pound of turkey to fee the whole family.  I think from now on I will be making my batch seperately.
