My Meatballs

I made a huge pot of spaghetti sauce today.  I put sausages, pork and meatballs in it.
I thought I would post how I make my meatballs.  Today I made them with ground turkey,

In a bowl I put ground turkey, 2 eggs, minced onion, minced garlic, a dash of milk, parsley, basil, rosemary, oregano, breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, salt and pepper.

You can use whatever kind of bread crumbs you like.  I make my own and happened to have some in my freezer.  My bread crumbs are made up of bread and ritz crackers.  I don't add salt to the bread crumbs because ritz crackers are already salty.  But, I do add spices and parmesan or romano cheese.
After I formed my meatballs, I fried them.  Some people like to bake them.  Either way is ok.
Then, I put them in my sauce.  I usually cook my meat sauce for at least 4 hours.  Today, I cooked it for five.  It just seems like the longer you cook it the better it tastes.
That's it!  Easy...
