TURKEY PESTO MEATBALLS
I wanted something new to do with my ground lean turkey meat and for some reason pesto popped into my head. Who would have thought that pesto meatballs were going to be absolutely amazing? These delicious meatballs coupled with homemade sauce and wheat pasta are a great traditional dinner with a wonderful twist.

SPAGHETTI WITH TURKEY-PESTO MEATBALLS - ATK
From: "Cooking at Home With Bridget & Julia" by America's Test Kitchen. Bridget Lancaster says: Make sure to use panko breadcrumbs for the meatballs as they are light and flaky. Otherwise, the meatballs will be super starchy. The sauce and meatballs can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 1 month.
