This ground turkey meatball sheet pan dinner takes on all the flavors of fresh herbs, shallot, garlic, and lemon zest you’ll find in Greek cooking. They add loads of flavor to both the turkey meatballs and the veggies. Give the meatballs a head start in the oven, and toss in a few veggies with some of the seasonings, olive oil, and lemon juice for a complete dinner, done on a sheet pan.
