Just a cozy, flavorful, one-pan dinner here that will be ready to go in a little over an hour.We loved serving these turkey meatballs with mashed potatoes, but they would also be great with baked potatoes, buttered noodles, or rice.Definitely perfect for the holidays or anytime you’re craving those classic Thanksgiving flavors without committing to a whole turkey.
Let’s make some turkey meatballs and gravy!

Over-mixing leads to dense meatballs, so fold everything together gently just until combined.Keep the meatballs small-ish.We found that two-tablespoon meatballs (about 1.5 inches) worked really well in this recipe and stay juicy in the gravy.
