Mexican Turkey Meatballs



Ok, Im a little obsessed with meatballs lately....so here is a kind of different version...I was bored in a staff meeting so that is when I came up with the recipe. They are so tasty. I served them with Cilantro Cashew Pesto, but they would be great served as an appetizer with creamy salsa or sour cream.

Mexican Turkey Meatballs

1 lb. ground turkey 93% lean
1/3 C milk
1/2 C bread crumbs
1/2 C oatmeal
1 egg, beaten
salt and pepper
1 jalepeno, chopped fine
few dashes worchestershire sauce
1/2 C colby jack cheese, shredded
handful fresh cilantro, chopped fine

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

put milk in large bowl, add breadcrumbs and oatmeal and mix well. Add all ingredients besides turkey and cilantro and mix well with your hands. Add turkey and cilantro and mix thoroughly. Shape into cocktail sized meatballs. Line baking trays with parchment paper. Place meatballs on baking trays. Bake 17-20 minutes until no longer pink inside. mmmmmm
