Best Moist Meatballs Recipes
SUPER MOIST ITALIAN MEATBALLS
Craving some tender and juicy meatballs?? Give this recipe a try! The two secrets are the extra eggs, and cooking the meatballs in the sauce, instead of pre-baking or frying them. Ground chuck or a 50/50 mix of chuck and sirloin work best for full flavor and moistness.

MOIST TURKEY MEATBALLS
This is an adaptation of Kittencal's recipe#69173. I wanted to be able to enjoy meatballs without the fat and had not, until now, found a good recipe for turkey meatballs. I made her delicious ones for the kids and hubby, but changed it up with turkey and extras for me(and my waistline). They are not dry and the flavor is slightly sweet from the basil. I usually have these with homemade pasta sauce and ww pasta.

MOIST MEATBALLS
An excellent meatball, to accompany your spaghetti..The breadcrumb "mush" acts as both a "binder" and moisturiser, with the milk "adding fat" to the meat, and the crumbs retaining this and the moisture of the meat itself. Eliminating the white from the eggs, allows the yolk alone as a binder, and does not cloud the taste of the meatball with the eggwhite. This mixture of meat is my favourite, although the same could be done with "straight" ground beef, though its my thought that it wouldn't taste as good. The result will be "juicy", and the herb mixture will match well to any Italian cuisine. Again, I like mine a bit "hot" but you can adjust the cayenne to your own preference.

MOIST & TASTY MEATBALLS
From Annabel Karmel, cordon bleu chef/author of First Meals (a baby to toddler cookbook). These yummy meatballs are easy to prepare and are deliciously moist (it's the apple). They are even pretty good on their own or served with sauces (mushroom, spaghetti/tomato). I always make a double batch and freeze half for later use. (My hubby likes the texture of beef, so when I double the recipe I use 1 lb beef, 1 lb turkey). They are slightly sweet but still savory.

MOIST TURKEY MEATBALLS
Adapted from Cooking Light's "Savory Meatballs" September 09. We don't use Ricotta (original calls for 1/2 cup part-skim), so I subbed cottage cheese and added some Parmesan. I also subbed dried Italian herbs for fresh basil (original calls for 1/4 cup, chopped). They came out far better than expected. I was amazed at the flavor from a turkey meatball. Pam Anderson's "Perfect Meatball" is my standard for dinner, but I'll use these for lunchtime as sandwiches or with pasta.

MOIST & TENDER MEATBALLS
These meatballs are great for a busy family. I make up a batch and freeze them in baggies with 15-20 per bag, then fix them on busy weeknights because they do not need to be defrosted. The meatballs are so tender and flavorful and everyone loves them.
