These meatballs were delicious! I used ground chicken instead of turkey, and they turned out great. The pesto sauce was also very good. I served them over rice and they were a hit with my family.

I love pesto, so I was excited to try this recipe. The meatballs were good, but the pesto sauce was a little too oily for my taste. Next time, I'll try using less olive oil.
