Oven Roasted Meatballs

From the "Deceptively Healthy" Pass the Plate, here is the recipe:


Oven Roasted Meatballs

2 slices firm white bread, coarsely chopped
1 small (8 ounces) zucchini, shredded
1 large egg white
1/3 cups Romano or Parmesan cheese
1 cloves garlic, crushed with garlic press
1 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoons ground black pepper
1 pound lean ground turkey breast

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. In large bowl, with hand, mix bread, zucchini, egg white, Romano, garlic, salt, and pepper until evenly moistened. Add ground turkey and mix just until evenly combined.

With wet hands, shape turkey mixture into twelve 2-inch meatballs. Place meatballs in 15 1/2-inch by 10 1/2-inch jelly-roll pan and bake 18 to 20 minutes or until cooked through and lightly browned.


I serve them with pasta and pasta sauce. My husband loves them more than the last set of meatballs he swore were the best!
