Turkey Meatball Stew

You can make this in the crockpot too!


This easy peazy recipe for Meatball stew can be made for your family in a flash! Using fresh ground turkey or chicken for the meatball mixture I then potatoes and green beans to mine but you can add any veggies your family might enjoy. I cooked my veggies separately slightly to allow for quicker turnover.  The meatballs will cook quickly too and once in sauce so tender and tasty.

A Hearty Meal that can be spiced up if you like by adding some red pepper too!
