SPAGHETTI AND TURKEY MEATBALLS
Lean ground turkey has just enough fat to give the meatballs some flavor, but little enough to keep them healthful. (Ground turkey breast results in dry meatballs, and regular ground turkey is higher in calories than lean ground beef.) Use a small ice-cream scoop to form the meatballs. Leftovers should be stored in sauce--and served as meatballs heroes.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions. Drain.
- Meanwhile, combine the turkey, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, egg, oregano, thyme and salt in a large bowl and mix thoroughly. Form into 1 1/2-inch meatballs; a small ice-cream scoop makes short work of forming the meatballs and prevents the mixture from getting overworked.
- Heat the oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs in a single layer (work in batches if necessary) and brown lightly on all sides, about 6 minutes. Pour in the sauce and simmer gently for 15 minutes.
- To serve, place spaghetti on each plate and ladle sauce and meatballs over the top. Sprinkle with chopped fresh herbs if desired.

Steps:
- Combine parsley, onion, garlic, and red pepper paste in the bowl of a food processor; process until finely blended. Transfer to a large bowl. Add turkey, basil, thyme, cumin, cinnamon, allspice, salt, and pepper; mix until thoroughly combined. Form mixture into uniformly-sized meatballs.
- Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add meatballs, working in batches if necessary, and saute until browned on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a plate.
- Add 4 cups water, spaghetti sauce, diced tomatoes, and tomato paste to the saucepan; mix to combine. Add more water if sauce seems too thick. Drop meatballs into sauce and cook over medium-low heat until flavors have melded, about 1 hour.

To make meatballs that are moist and tender, avoid using very lean ground turkey. For convenience, make a batch of sauce and meatballs ahead and freeze for up to three months.

Steps:
- Make the sauce: In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, and cook for about 1 minute. Stir in the tomatoes, oregano, and thyme, and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer, covered, for 20 to 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the meatballs: In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, 1 1/4 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper with a fork. Stir in the onion, breadcrumbs, cheese, and parsley. Add the turkey, and mix until combined. Form the mixture into 1 1/2-inch balls.
- Add the meatballs to the skillet, and spoon the sauce over to coat. Simmer over medium heat until the meatballs are just cooked through, about 8 minutes.
- While the meatballs simmer, cook the spaghetti in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente according to the package instructions. Drain the pasta, transfer to the skillet, and toss gently with the meatballs and sauce. Serve with more cheese.
- Keeping your hands wet when shaping meatballs will prevent the meat from sticking, making the task much easier.
