Chelle'S Famous Turkey Meatballs - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 lbs ground turkey breast
    3 eggs
    1 cup fine breadcrumbs (Old London or Progresso are best,seasoned)
    1/2 cup asiago 3-cheese blend, shredded (Asagio,Parm,Romano blend)
    garlic powder, to taste
    ground black pepper, to taste
    onion powder, to taste
    cajun-louisiana seasoning blend, to taste (Luzianne Cajun Seasoning)
    3 tablespoons canola oil
Preparation
    In a large mixing bowl, combine turkey and eggs until thoroughly mixed.
    Add seasonings to suit your taste. I tend to be fairly heavy handed,especially with garlic and black pepper. ;) Mix completely.
    Add cheese and bread crumbs. *If mixture is still too moist, feel free to add more bread crumbs until desired consistency is achieved.
    Roll into large, walnut sized balls and set aside.
    In a large skillet, warm 3 tablespoons oil over medium heat.
    Cook meatballs until golden brown, turning so that each side is browned. (Hint- a screen is helpful since the oil may pop and splatter like bacon).
    Serving tip: My family likes these plain, with Contadina sweet and sour sauce (doctored up) on brown rice, in a marinara over your favorite pasta, slice in half on French rolls with marinara and cheese for a great meatball sandwich, in Swedish meatballs, in a BBQ sauce or anything for a party, you name it! They do freeze well too. Enjoy! ;).
