Crock Pot:
Meatballs:
In a large bowl, whisk eggs, pork rinds, cheese and seasonings together. Add ground turkey; mix just until combined. Roll mixture into 24 meatballs.
Insert 1 cheese cube into the center of each meatball; set aside.
Marinara Sauce:
In a separate bowl, stir together marinara sauce ingredients.
Pour just enough sauce to cover the bottom of the crock pot. Place meatballs in the crock pot; cover with remaining sauce. Cover; cook on High 3 hours or Low 6 hours.
8 servings.
Oven:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Follow the recipe from above up until putting the sauce in the crock pot. Instead, place half of the sauce into a 9 x 13 inch baking pan. Add all of the meatballs; cover with remaining sauce.
Bake 30 minutes or until turkey is no longer pink when a meatball is cut open.
