These easy turkey meatballs are quick to prepare and very kid-friendly. You can serve them with pasta and spaghetti sauce or just eat them with ketchup, as my children do.

- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1.25 pounds 93%-lean ground turkey
- 0.33 cups Italian seasoned bread crumbs
- 1 large egg , beaten

Gather all ingredients.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with oil, and place it into the oven while preheating.

3
Mix turkey, bread crumbs, and egg together in a bowl with your hands.
-
4
Using an ice cream scoop if possible, form mixture into golf ball-sized meatballs. Place meatballs into the hot dish, about 1 inch apart. Press gently on each meatball to flatten the bottom just slightly.

5
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Flip meatballs over and continue baking until somewhat crispy on the outside, about 5 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Orange, Poppy Seed, and Butternut Squash Coffee Cake
I came up with this coffee cake as a way to use up some leftover butternut squash puree. The cake itself is light, fluffy, and moist, with a crispy streusel topping providing a nice contrast. The flavor combo of the squash with the orange, poppy seeds, and spices turned out delicious. Enjoy slightly warm, or at room temp. Tastes even better the next day!
