Step 1
Heat the oven to 400°F. While the oven is heating, mix the egg, bread crumbs, onion powder, garlic powder, Parmesan and water in a large bowl. Add the turkey and mix just until combined (over-mixing will make the meatballs tough). Season with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Spray a rimmed baking sheet with vegetable cooking spray. Firmly shape the turkey mixture into 12 (2-inch) meatballs (use about 1/4 cup mixture for each meatball). Place the meatballs onto the baking sheet.
Step 3
Bake for 20 minutes or until the meatballs are done.
Step 4
While the meatballs are baking, heat the sauce in a 3-quart saucepan over low heat until hot. When the meatballs are done, add to the sauce and stir to coat.
