Giada's Penne with Turkey Meatballs

i've made this often and we love it.  i know scape uses it a lot too.

i have tried making them ahead and freezing them, but found these meatballs do not freeze well.  i think they're too soft.  they don't hold their shape.  i end up with meat sauce, which is still delicious, but not meatballs. (just an fyi)

nope, we just like to do turkey when we can.

matt just found out he has high cholesterol so we're pushing turkey even more. :)

ah, got it. definitely one of those things that is relatively easy to cut back on, but not so easy (or necessary) to give up completely. turkey is a totally good sub.
