Greek Turkey Meatballs

This is the second attempt at this Greek turkey meatballs recipe. They really are quite delicious. My friend W tried one and she said there were delicious as well. I have been using a 1/2 tablespoon to create the meatballs for all my turkey meatballs lately. I like have lots of little meatballs rather than a few larger ones. I served this along with a salad (see next post) and all in all it was a wonderful meal to top off a day of beautiful weather. Spring is in the air and soon we'll be grilling up a storm. I can't wait for the seasonal produce and I'm thinking about joining a CSA.
