I was looking through a Cooking Light magazine and found this delicious looking recipe. It did not disappoint. The original recipe calls for 90% lean ground sirloin. But turkey was on sale this week and that's what I used. It was still delicious. The family went back for seconds and everyone was happy. Gotta love that!
Total Time: 30 minutes
Yield: 4 servings
Source: adapted from Cooking Light magazine - Swedish Meatballs with Red Currant Pan Sauce
Ingredients:
- 6 ounces of noodles (I used rotini, I think)
- 1 tsp unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup grated red onion
- 1/4 cup 2% milk
- 1/4 cup whole wheat panko breadcrumbs (I didn't have any, so I grated a piece of whole wheat bread)
- 1 1/2 tsp dried dill
- 1 tsp ground black pepper, divided
- 3/4 tsp salt, divided
- 1/2 tsp ground allspice
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 lb ground turkey

- 4 tsp flour
- 1 cup beef broth
- 3 Tbsp sour cream
Steps:
- Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain. Toss with butter, cover and set aside.
- Combine grated onion, panko, milk, dill, 1/2 tsp pepper, 1/4 tsp salt, allspice and nutmeg in large bowl.
- Add turkey meat. Stir with hands til combined. Gently form meat mixture into 20 balls (about 1 Tbsp. each).
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Coat with cooking spray. Add meatballs to pan, turning occasionally, until cooked through. Take off heat. Transfer to a paper-lined plate, leaving browned bits in the pan.

- Return pan to medium heat. Add stock mixture to pan. Cook 2 minutes until mixture is thickened and bubbly, stirring constantly.
- Remove pan from heat. Whisk in sour cream, remaining 1/2 tsp pepper and remaining 1/2 tsp salt.
