    Jalapeno Turkey Meatball. Savoury, delicious, easy meatballs with a hint of spice! The perfect side dish to any meal.

    These turkey meatballs only take 30 minutes of your time and 7 ingredients if you don't count salt and pepper. There is no rolling involved and that's why this recipe takes less time than your usual meatball recipe.

    Jalapeno Turkey Meatball

    What I love most about these jalapeno turkey meatballs is that they're not perfectly round. They have crispy little edges thanks to their lazy odd shape, making it extra delicious!

    I know there are many turkey meatball recipes out there but this one is so good and easy! Simple for a family meal and not complicated at all! Making this is the perfect turkey meatball dinner recipe.

    I also share a couple other meatball recipes below so don't forget to check them out!

      So good and so easy to make! I like how this version requires no rolling as I'm a busy mom and sometimes I just don't have the time! So thank you.

      I really loved your idea for keeping our fingers clean by just spooning the meatballs onto the cooking tray. Brilliant!
