Cheesy Italian Meatballs

1 1/2 pounds turkey breast, ground, Lean 93/7 or lean ground beef

1 ounce Italian Cheese blend- shredded (Aged Provolone, Asiago, Parmesan & Romano blend or your choice of cheese)

1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs Progresso Italian Style

1/4 cup tomato sauce

1 teaspoon dry mustard

2 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper

3 cloves garlic — crushed

Cooking spray

Preheat oven to 400°.

Combine all ingredients except cooking spray in a bowl; stir well. Shape mixture into 30 (1 1/2-inch) meatballs.(I use my large cookie scoop) Place on a rimmed baking sheet lined with foil pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 400° for 15 minutes or until done. No need to turn them.

These freeze well so go ahead and make a double batch and freeze half.

Servings: 10
