Tips & Substitutions
For added moisture, consider using ground turkey with a higher fat content or mixing in some grated zucchini. If you don't have Lipton beefy onion soup mix, a combination of onion powder, garlic powder, and beef broth can work as a substitute. To enhance flavor, try adding fresh herbs like parsley or basil to the mixture.
Serving Suggestions
These meatballs are delicious served with marinara sauce over spaghetti or with a side of garlic bread. For a complete meal, pair them with a salad or steamed vegetables. They also work well in subs with melted cheese, making them a versatile addition to your dinner table or a great game day snack.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use only one type of ground meat?
Yes, you can use just one type of ground meat, such as ground beef or turkey, but the combination adds depth of flavor and moisture. If using only turkey, consider a higher fat content to ensure the meatballs remain juicy.
What can I serve with these meatballs?
These meatballs pair wonderfully with pasta, rice, or a fresh green salad. For a comforting meal, try serving them alongside Potatoes In Mustard Sauce to complement the flavors.
Can I freeze the meatballs before cooking?
Absolutely! You can freeze the meatballs before baking. Simply shape them, place them on a baking sheet, and freeze until solid. Then transfer to a freezer bag. Bake from frozen, adding an extra 10-15 minutes to the cooking time.
