Turkey Meatballs
The low-fat, high-protein turkey meat is a good source of vitamins, minerals and trace elements. One portion of the meatballs already covers the daily niacin requirement. The B vitamin plays a role in nutrient metabolism and contributes to energy production; it also promotes the formation of certain messenger substances in the brain.
The recipe is for 4 servings, but can be increased as required - good if many guests come. Or you can freeze from it, then you have the delicious meatballs in stock.
