Make your OWN meatballs with this tried and true Baked Turkey Parmesan Meatballs recipe. It’s a great dish that the whole family can enjoy.

I love a good recipe where you can incorporate the kids when making it. This just happens to be one of those dishes. All of my kids like to get their hands a little dirty in the kitchen, whether it’s the main dish, side dish, or their own creative desserts oozing with marshmallows or melted chocolate. 

Baked Turkey Parmesan Meatballs is one of my favorite go-to recipes. You can eat them alone, add them to spaghetti or zoodles, or place it on a toasted hoagie bun for a flavorful sandwich.

I have to be honest because these meatballs don’t ever make it to a plate most of the time. Instead, there are devoured right off of the foil.

How To Store Sweet Onions

If you’ve purchased your Sweet Onions and plan on using them within the week, you can leave them out on the counter; otherwise, follow these simple tips for long-term storage.

  • STORAGE TIP #1 – Wrap and separate if storing in the refrigerator – Place in paper towel 
  • STORAGE TIP #2 – Keep away from potatoes – Placing them next to them will make them go bad faster.
