Spaghetti Squash and Turkey Meatballs Recipe #GlutenFree #JennieO 6

I made the switch to ground turkey years ago, like almost 20 years ago, so I know the benefits of using ground turkey in recipes that call for regular ground beef. Jennie-O makes it even easier with an array of products to help you Make The Switch yourself.
For the following recipe I purchased JENNIE-O lean ground turkey to make a healthier spaghetti and meatballs dish.
