Those Turkey Zucchini Meatballs are an excellent manner to deplete the zucchini out of your garden, but even when you have to go out and buy a pair, these meatballs are completely worth it.

I didn’t think they had been going to maintain together with best 2 Tablespoons of bread crumbs but the wife assured me that they’d be pleasant.
