Spicy Turkey Meatballs
Spaghetti and Meatballs is a favorite in our house, but it's not exactly a low-fat, low-calorie meal. I shave fat calories by substituting lean ground turkey for ground beef, and using a little less meat overall. To boost the nutritional value of the meal, I serve the meatballs with a low-sodium tomato sauce and whole-wheat spaghetti. Since meatballs are pretty much a weekly staple, I like to keep them interesting by messing with the flavorings a little. These slightly spicy turkey meatballs have a distinctive southwestern flavor. You can ramp up the heat by adding some hot sauce to the mix. Spicy Turkey Meatballs © Fiona Haynes, licensed to About.com, Inc.
