Author's Notes

To store: Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 3-5 days.

To Freeze: Freeze cooked meatballs on a baking sheet for about an hour, then transfer to a freezer-safe container or freezer bag and store in the freezer for 2-3 months.

Don’t over mix your turkey for the most tender and juicy meatballs.

Save time on busy weeknights by using store-bought tzatziki.
