Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Halve the squash lengthwise and remove the seeds.
- Place on a baking sheet, cut-side up. Roast the squash until softened, 30 to 40 minutes depending on size.
- Heat a large, deep skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Saute the garlic and onions until translucent. Add the tomatoes and simmer on low heat, about 45 minutes. In a large bowl, combine the turkey, bread, milk, Parmesan, basil and parsley and mix well. Form into 2-inch meatballs.
- Heat a few tablespoons of vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Pan-fry the meatballs until browned on all sides. Cook in batches if needed. Transfer the meatballs to the tomato sauce and simmer until cooked through.
- Using a fork, remove the squash flesh from the skin and stir the squash into the tomato sauce. Serve the squash topped with meatballs.
TURKEY MEATBALLS IN TOMATO SAUCE
Tender meatballs filled with onions and Parmesan, bathed in plenty of tomato sauce, are classics in every way except for one: They call for turkey instead of the usual beef (or beef-veal-pork combination). Serve them over spaghetti or polenta, or stuff them into a hero roll for a sandwich. Try to use ground dark meat turkey here if you can, it has a deeper, richer flavor than ground white meat.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine cheese, bread crumbs, onion, chives, garlic, salt, pepper, oregano and red pepper flakes, if using, and mix well. Add turkey and egg and blend with your hands until well mixed. If you've got time, cover mixture and chill for an hour or up to 24 hours. These are easiest to form into balls while very cold. Form into 28 meatballs, each about 1 1/4-inches in diameter.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large sauté pan. When hot, add enough of the meatballs to fit in one layer without crowding, and brown on all sides, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate, add another tablespoon of oil to pan and brown another layer of meatballs, transferring them to the plate as they brown. Repeat until all meatballs are browned, adding more oil to the pan as needed.
- When meatballs are all browned, add marinara sauce to pan and bring to a simmer, scraping up the browned bits on the pan bottom. Return meatballs and their juices to pan, shake pan to cover the meatballs with sauce, and lower heat. Partly cover pan and simmer until the meatballs are cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Serve hot, drizzled with more olive oil and sprinkled with more cheese, if you like.

TURKEY MEATBALL AND VEGETABLE STEW
The flavor and color of fresh vegetables and herbs abound in this stew. Make the meatballs first, and let them firm up in the refrigerator while you chop the veggies for the stew. Serve on its own, with hot biscuits, or over mashed potatoes or noodles, whichever your family prefers. Satisfying, but light, I hope it's a keeper for you!

Steps:
- Combine oats, onion, mushrooms, basil, parsley, and garlic in a large mixing bowl. Add beaten egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper; stir to combine. Add turkey, and using a rubber spatula, stir and mash ingredients together evenly. Form into 27 to 30 meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter. Refrigerate for about 20 minutes.
- Combine butternut squash, carrots, mushrooms, celery, parsnips, red onion, garlic, bay leaf, salt, and pepper in a 6-quart kettle or Dutch oven. Pour in broth and wine; mix to combine. Bring to a boil over medium high-heat. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Make sure the liquid is at a true simmer, with small, intermittent bubbles.
- Gently add meatballs one at a time, without stirring, as this will cause the meatballs to fall apart. Reduce heat to low. Cook until the bottoms of the meatballs begin to turn white, about 3 minutes. Gently turn meatballs to allow the other side to cook. Increase heat to medium-low and cook for about 10 minutes. Turn meatballs again, and continue to cook for about 15 minutes. Stir in frozen peas.
- Test meatballs for doneness with an instant-read thermometer. The safe internal temperature for meatballs is 175 degrees F (79 degrees C).
- If stew is too thin, remove about 1/2 cup of broth to a cup and allow to cool briefly. Briskly stir in cornstarch until there are no lumps. Gradually add slurry to the stew, stirring constantly, and cook until the broth has thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

SNEAKY TURKEY MEATBALLS
Like most kids, mine refuse to eat certain veggies. In order to feed them healthy foods, I have to be sneaky sometimes. The veggies give these meatballs a pleasing texture while providing valuable nutrients-and I'm happy to say my kids love 'em. -Courtney Stultz, Weir, Kansas

Steps:
- Heat large pot or dutch oven on medium heat. Once pot is heated, add oil. Lower heat and add chopped onion, stir then sprinkle with healthy pinch of kosher salt. Heat for 2minutes then add minced garlic and stir. Cook for one minute being careful not to burn and add sliced mushrooms, celery and diced green pepper, stir. Add spices and stir. Once vegetables are tender add tomato sauce and stir. Add bay leaf. Simmer. Add 2 tbsps balsamic vinegar and a generous splash of red wine. Continue to simmer, stirring to ensure that sauce is not sticking to bottom of pan. Reduce heat if necessary.
- To make the meatballs.
- In a medium bowl add Italian bread crumbs, dried basil, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, season salt and black pepper. Stir and add minced lean turkey. Mix well but try not to handle too much to keep them tender. Form into balls and drop into sauce. Ensure meat balls are covered in sauce. Simmer and stir carefully until done, a good 2 hours. Ensure that sauce does not burn to bottom of pot. Add chicken broth or water if sauce becomes too thick. Once meat balls are cooked, taste sauce and add more salt, seasoning and/or cayenne pepper to taste.
- I have found, depending on thickness of pot the sauce will sometimes be very thick. When I make at home I often have to add cups of liquid to the sauce, but it is dependent upon personal preference.
