Turkey Meatball Subs

In honor of Thanksgiving we made turkey meatball subs. I wasn't compelled to make a huge roast turkey, stuffing and all the fixings for Thanksgiving. Instead we made subs (with ground turkey of course). We made them a day late since yesterday we had dinner at some friends' on a whim (which wasn't a traditional meal either, pizzas....with turkey pepperoni, turkey sausage and other yummy toppings).

I'm not big into measuring things unless I am really trying to follow a recipe (such as making bread and other flour based items). Instead I just toss stuff in that looks good and seems like an acceptable quantity.













































Turkey Meatball Subs:
1 lb ground turkey
1 egg
1/2 cup torn bread for bread crumbs
1/2 onion chopped
1/4 cup parsley chopped
1 glove garlic chopped
salt and pepper
1 jar of tomato sauce
Sub rolls (homemade preferably)
Cheese (if desired)
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  2. Place the ground turkey in a large bowl
  3. Add the egg, bread crumbs, onion, parsley and garlic.
  4. Season with salt and pepper to taste and mix to combine.
  5. Form meat mixture into small balls.
  6. In a large frying pan brown the meatballs on all sides.
  7. Place the meatballs on a baking sheet and cook for 5 minutes.
  8. Return the meatballs the the frying pan and add the tomato sauce.
  9. Cover and cook until the meatballs are fully cooked (about 10 more minutes).
  10. Spoon the meatballs and sauce onto the sub rolls. If topping with cheese, do so and then place under the broiler (set on HI) for a minute or two until the cheese is melted. Enjoy!
