SERVES: 10 people

COOK TIME: 25 Min

If you make our Sicilian Turkey Meatballs a day or two in advance, when mealtime comes, you've got dinner in a snap! These are great on their own, over low-carb pasta or even stuffed into a whole-wheat wrap!

What You'll Need

1 pound ground turkey breast
1 pound Italian turkey sausage, casings removed
1 1/2 cup shredded wheat cereal, crushed
2 egg whites
1/2 cup dry red wine
1 (28-ounce) jar low-sodium spaghetti sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

What to Do

In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, sausage, cereal, egg whites, and wine. Mix well then form into 30 meatballs.
In a soup pot combine the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil over medium heat. Place meatballs in sauce and stir gently.
Cover and let simmer on low for 30 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking 15-20 minutes or until meatballs are no longer pink in center.
