Holy (Turkey-Cheese) Meatball


  • 1/4 cup Italian Seasoning
  • 1/4 cup prepared pesto
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 pound fresh mozzarella, cut into small cubes
  • T extra-virgin olive oil

  1. Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F 
  2. Place the ground turkey, onion, garlic, egg, bread crumbs, seasoning, pesto, and salt in a bowl. Mix until evenly blended, then form into 1 3/4-inch meatballs. Make a hole in the meatball with your finger and place a cheese cube in the hole. Seal the meatball around the cheese and place on a nonstick baking sheet. Drizzle the olive oil over the meatballs.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until the meatballs are no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes. 
Enjoy
