  • Whisk milk and eggs together in a large bowl. Add turkey, panko bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, basil, onion, garlic, salt, oregano, and pepper and mix together using your hands.

  • Form mixture into golf ball-size meatballs and place 1 inch apart on a baking sheet.

  • Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the centers, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the centers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

  • Plate and top with marinara sauce.

Cook's Note:

Use your favorite jarred marinara sauce or make your own. You can use regular bread crumbs instead of panko, if preferred.

These got high ratings all around the table. We recommend not skimping on the garlic and pepper. Read More

I made these for my daycare kids they were a hit. Only changes I made was to use stovetop stuffing instead of breadcrumbs (didn t have any) left out most of the garlic and I grated about a cup of zucchini into the mix. They were moist and delicious! Read More
