Cooking Instructions

Preheat the broiler and set an oven rack on the second-highest rack. Line a baking sheet with heavy duty aluminum foil and grease with the Extra-Virgin Olive Oil (1 Tbsp) .

In a bowl large enough to hold all of the ingredients, beat the Eggland's Best Classic Egg (1) . Add the Fresh Baby Spinach (2 3/4 cups) , Scallions (1 bunch) , and Garlic (3 cloves) and stir until evenly combined.

Add the 93/7 Lean Ground Turkey (1.3 lb) , Italian Turkey Sausages (1.3 lb) , Shredded Mozzarella Cheese (1 cup) , Parmigiano-Reggiano (1 cup) and Italian-Style Breadcrumbs (1 cup) . Using your hands, mix until evenly combined.

Meanwhile, heat the tomato Marinara Sauce (2 1/2 cups) in a large pan on the stovetop. Add the broiled meatballs and simmer over low heat for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the meatballs are fully cooked.

Serve and enjoy!
