SPICY TURKEY ANDOUILLE MEATBALLS AND SPAGHETTI
This recipe is sponsored by Classico. Everyone has had spaghetti and meatballs, but not quite like this! Plump, flavorful and spicy andouille sausage meatballs are simmered in tomato basil sauce, then served over pasta for the ultimate classic meal with a twist. Between the hearty, Cajun-inspired meatballs and the herbaceous, decadent sauce, there's just no way to lose with this recipe.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Add the Italian sausage, andouille sausage, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning and egg to a medium bowl and mix together using your hands until well combined. Form the mixture into small to medium meatballs (about 1 1/2 tablespoons each; 16 total meatballs) and set aside on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Add the olive oil to a large pan or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the meatballs in batches, turning them over on all sides to make sure they are browned but not completely cooked through, until golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Add more olive oil if needed to cook all the meatballs.
- As the meatballs cook, boil the spaghetti according to the package instructions. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water, then drain.
- Once the meatballs are browned, add them all back to the pan and pour in the pasta sauce. Add the reserved pasta water, then cover, bring to a simmer and cook until the meatballs are cooked through, about 10 minutes.
- Either toss the cooked spaghetti into the sauce or spoon the sauce and meatballs over the cooked spaghetti. Garnish with Parmesan and parsley if desired and serve.
THE BEST TURKEY MEATBALLS
These juicy meatballs with a tender, light texture are packed with flavorful herbs. The meat mixture is softer than you might expect, thanks to the addition of ricotta, but sacrificing a perfectly round shape is worth it. You'll make these turkey meatballs so often you just might forget about your beef meatball recipe.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and drizzle the olive oil and canola oil in an even layer over the paper.
- Pour the breadcrumbs into a large mixing bowl, pour the milk over top and stir to fully moisten the breadcrumbs. Add the remaining ingredients to the mixing bowl and mix with your hands just until combined.
- Scoop 1/4-cupfuls of meatball mixture and place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet; you should have 12 meatballs. Gently roll them into balls. Bake until bottoms are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F and continue to bake for 15 to 20 minutes more until the meatballs are cooked through.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper. Place the bread in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Process until the bread is in medium crumbs. Transfer the crumbs to a small bowl and add the milk. Set aside for 5 minutes. In a large mixing bowl, combine the turkey, sausage, prosciutto, bread mixture, Asiago, parsley, oregano, red pepper flakes, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Lightly combine the ingredients with your hands. Add the 3 tablespoons of olive oil and the eggs, and stir lightly with a fork to combine. With your hands, lightly roll the mixture into 2-inch-round meatballs and place them on the prepared sheet pans. Brush the meatballs with olive oil. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the tops are browned and the centers are completely cooked. Pour the marinara sauce in a large, low pot, add the meatballs, and bring to a simmer. Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti in a large pot of boiling salted water according to the directions on the package. Drain and place the spaghetti in individual bowls, and top with 3 meatballs and lots of sauce. Serve with Parmesan cheese on the side.
