Instructions

Combine ground turkey, spinach, ricotta cheese, parsley, Parmesan cheese, salt, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes in a bowl.
Gently pack turkey mixture into a ¼ cup measuring cup or ice cream scoop and form into meatballs. Lightly season the outside of meatballs with additional salt.
