Slow Cooker Turkey Meatballs

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 pound extra lean ground turkey breast
• 1/4 cup plain panko bread crumbs

  I like Ian's brand
• 2 teaspoons dried oregano
• 2 teaspoons dried basil
• 3 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
• 1 large egg

  optional
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1/2 medium yellow onion

  finely chopped (1/3 cup)
• 2 cups of your favorite homemade marinara or store-bought jarred sauce

  here's my favorite sauce recipe

Instructions

• 1 In a large bowl, mix all meatball ingredients with your hands just until
  combined. Be careful not to over-mix, or the meatballs will be tough. Form the
  mixture into balls roughly 1- to 1½-inches in diameter (You should have roughly
  16 meatballs)
• 2 Scatter the onion over the base of your slow cooker. Arrange the meatballs over
  the onion, spreading them out in a single layer.
• 3 Pour the sauce evenly over the top, tossing to coat every meatball in sauce.
  Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours. Serve the meatballs and sauce with your favorite
  pasta.
