Ingredients
1/4 cup 2% milk
2 Knorr® Chicken flavored Bouillon Cubes, divided
2 lbs. ground turkey
1 medium onion, finely chopped
3/4 cup Italian seasoned dry bread crumbs
2 eggs
4 Tbsp. I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!® Spread, divided
2 cups water
1 cup whole berry cranberry sauce
1 cup lowfat sour cream
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp. chopped flat-leaf parsley (optional)
Instructions
  1. Spray 6-quart slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.
  2. Microwave milk with 1 Knorr® Chicken flavored Bouillon Cube in small microwave-safe bowl at HIGH 20 seconds; stir until dissolved. Combine ground turkey, onion, milk mixture, bread crumbs and eggs in large bowl; shape into 75 (1-1/2 inch) meatballs.
  3. Melt 2 tablespoons I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!® Spread in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat and brown 25 meatballs, turning gently, about 4 minutes; add to slow cooker. Melt 1 tablespoon Spread and brown 25 meatballs; add to slow cooker. Repeat with remaining 1 tablespoon Spread and meatballs.
  4. Add water, cranberry sauce and remaining Bouillon Cube to slow cooker. Cook covered on HIGH 3 hours or until meatballs are done.
  5. Combine sour cream with flour with wire whisk. Whisk 1/2 cup liquid from slow cooker into sour cream mixture. Gently stir back into slow cooker; combine well. Cook covered an additional 30 minutes or until thickened. Stir in parsley just before serving.
TIP: Moisten hands lightly with water to keep meatball mixture from sticking to your hands.
