These meatballs were a bit bland. I think I'll try adding some extra spices next time.

These meatballs were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference.

The sauce is the perfect balance of sweet and sour. It's not too overpowering, but it definitely packs a flavor punch.

I've made these meatballs several times now and they always turn out great! I love that they're made with turkey, which makes them a bit healthier than traditional meatballs.
