Author: Simply Happenstance

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds lean ground turkey I prefer Jennie-O
  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup egg substitute or 2 eggs whites
  • 1/2 yellow or sweet onion diced
  • salt and pepper for taste.
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon or lemon juice
  • 1 16 ounce can jellied cranberry sauce (Oceanspray)
  • 1 12 ounce bottle of chili sauce (Heinz)
  • 1/2 bag of no yolk egg noodles.
  • light salt and pepper to taste.

Instructions

  • Turn on the crockpot and line with crock pot liners or spray with cooking spray.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine first 5 ingredients and roll the mixture into the shaped of small meatballs.
  • Place the meatballs at the bottom of the slow cooker.
  • Then combine the ketchup, brown sugar, lemon juice, cranberry sauce, and chili sauce and mix together until smooth.
  • Pour and spread across the top of the meatballs making sure they are covered.
  • Place the lid on and cook for 8-10 hours on low.
  • 20 minutes before the meatballs look to be done boil the water to cook the No Yolk Egg Noodles for 10 minutes.
  • Optional sprinkle with a little parmesan cheese.

Notes

All crock pot's are different. Watch to make sure the meatballs are done. My crock pot usually cooks about a half and hour quicker than most and my meatballs take around 7 to 7 and a half hours to complete. Great light weeknight meal that you can set it and forget it.
