I saw a recipe earlier for Swedish Meatballs. It looked really good, but rich and fattening. So I decided to come up with one a little more figure friendly. It also sounds yummy, just not as rich and fattening. The other recipe calls for pork and beef. Mine calls for Turkey. Here is my lower fat and calorie version of Swedish Meatballs.
