Air Fryer Turkey Meatballs

Air Fryer Turkey Meatballs After being sick for seven weeks with pneumonia (which actually ended up being GERD), I’ve had more time at home and have been cooking dinner for the family every night. One meal we all enjoyed was Air Fried Turkey Meatballs, inspired by Megane Woldsen on Instagram.  I adapted the recipe to create a healthier, family-friendly spaghetti and meatball dinner using ground turkey instead of ground beef. The Air Fryer gives them a crispy outside while keeping the inside tender.  These meatballs are versatile and can be served with spaghetti, made into kabobs, or placed in a sub sandwich.
