For extra flavor, marinate the ground turkey with the spices and herbs for at least 30 minutes before forming the meatballs. Serve these meatballs with a side of tzatziki sauce or a Greek salad for a complete meal. To prevent sticking, make sure the baking sheet is well-sprayed with cooking spray. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs. Use about 1 teaspoon of each dried herb. These meatballs can also be cooked in a skillet over medium heat. Cook for about 12-15 minutes, or until cooked through.
