When Dawn Onuffer, Crestview, Florida, declares, âThe buffet is open,â guests make a beeline for the meatballs. âThe combination of lean turkey, sausage, chili sauce and preserves is scrumptious!â Ingredients:
2 eggs, lightly beaten |
2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce |
2 tablespoons plus 1 cup chili sauce, divided |
1 cup soft whole wheat bread crumbs |
2 tablespoons dried minced onion |
1 teaspoon dried oregano |
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1 pound lean ground turkey |
1 pound italian turkey sausage links, casings removed |
1/2 cup reduced-sugar apricot preserves |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the eggs, Worcestershire sauce and 2 tablespoons chili sauce. Stir in the bread crumbs, onion, oregano, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Crumble turkey and sausage over mixture and mix well. Shape into 1-in. balls.
2. Place on a rack coated with cooking spray in a shallow baking pan. Bake at 375° for 15-20 minutes or until meat is no longer pink.
3. In a large bowl, combine apricot preserves and remaining chili sauce. Add meatballs and toss gently. Place in a 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake 5-10 minutes longer or until glazed, stirring every 3 minutes. Yield: about 4 dozen.
