- Portion meatballs using a small 1- to 1 1/2-ounce ice cream scoop. Shape into balls using your hands and place on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until browned and no longer pink in the centers, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.

TURKEY MEATBALL AND VEGETABLE STEW
The flavor and color of fresh vegetables and herbs abound in this stew. Make the meatballs first, and let them firm up in the refrigerator while you chop the veggies for the stew. Serve on its own, with hot biscuits, or over mashed potatoes or noodles, whichever your family prefers. Satisfying, but light, I hope it's a keeper for you!

Steps:
- Combine oats, onion, mushrooms, basil, parsley, and garlic in a large mixing bowl. Add beaten egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper; stir to combine. Add turkey, and using a rubber spatula, stir and mash ingredients together evenly. Form into 27 to 30 meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter. Refrigerate for about 20 minutes.
- Combine butternut squash, carrots, mushrooms, celery, parsnips, red onion, garlic, bay leaf, salt, and pepper in a 6-quart kettle or Dutch oven. Pour in broth and wine; mix to combine. Bring to a boil over medium high-heat. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Make sure the liquid is at a true simmer, with small, intermittent bubbles.
- Gently add meatballs one at a time, without stirring, as this will cause the meatballs to fall apart. Reduce heat to low. Cook until the bottoms of the meatballs begin to turn white, about 3 minutes. Gently turn meatballs to allow the other side to cook. Increase heat to medium-low and cook for about 10 minutes. Turn meatballs again, and continue to cook for about 15 minutes. Stir in frozen peas.
- Test meatballs for doneness with an instant-read thermometer. The safe internal temperature for meatballs is 175 degrees F (79 degrees C).
- If stew is too thin, remove about 1/2 cup of broth to a cup and allow to cool briefly. Briskly stir in cornstarch until there are no lumps. Gradually add slurry to the stew, stirring constantly, and cook until the broth has thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Tips:
- Prep your veggies: Before you start cooking, wash and chop your vegetables. This will save you time and keep your cooking process organized.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like parsley, thyme, and rosemary add a burst of flavor to your stew. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount as you would fresh.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: When adding your vegetables to the pot, don't overcrowd it. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Simmer, don't boil: Bring your stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
- Taste and adjust seasonings: As your stew simmers, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.

Vegetable meatball stew is a hearty, flavorful, and satisfying dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious vegetable meatball stew that the whole family will love.
