I got the following recipe from my Mom.
Turkey Sage Meatball Sandwiches
1 large egg, white only
1 tablespoon chicken broth or dry white wine
2 tablespoon fine bread crumbs
½ teaspoon dried sage
¼ teaspoon salt
8 oz. ground lean turkey
2 tablespoons chopped dried cranberries
1 green onion, sliced thin
Cooking spray
2 French rolls
1 cup arugula, optional
2 oz. sliced thin Gouda cheese (I also use Mozzarella)
Dijon mustard
Combine well first five ingredients. Add turkey, cranberries, and green onion. Shape into 1½ inch meatballs. Spray baking pan with cooking spray. Place meatballs in pan. Bake at 450º F. for 15 – 20 minutes or until no longer pink. Wrap French rolls in foil and warm in oven 6-8 minutes before meatballs are done. Spread Dijon mustard on rolls. Place half of arugula on roll, place meatballs on top, and then slices of cheese. Serves 2.
