Salsa Meatballs
I received this as a freezer meal last year and have made them several times. I posted the recipe here and the Printable Recipe has been updated with nutrition information.

Previously I used beef meatballs but I wanted to lighten it up a bit by using turkey meatballs. These meatballs were fantastic. They could be used in pasta sauce or in any other recipe that requires meatballs. They had an excellent flavor and were great plain also.
