• 1 lb lean ground turkey
• 1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 Tbsp dried Oregano
• 1 Tbsp dried Basil
• 1 Tbsp dried Parsley or 1/4 cup fresh chopped
• 1/2 tsp Crushed Red Pepper
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 can Pillsbury Original breadsticks
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375°

3. In bowl combine ground turkey, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, Oregano, Basil, Parsley, red pepper flakes and garlic. Form into 1 inch meatballs.
4. Open can of breadsticks and starting with one breadstick at a time thread dough then meatball. Repeat the process with 2 more meatballs alternating dough-meatball, ending with dough. Make sure to spread dough and meatballs away from each other by about ¼", so the meatballs bake through and the dough has room to expand.
