  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). 
  2. In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, onion powder, garlic, herbs, black pepper, cayenne pepper and chili pepper flakes.  
  3. Form the mixture into meatballs, roughly the size of a walnut and arrange them in a deep sided oven-proof dish. Place the dish in the oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until the meatballs are cooked through. Remove the meatballs from the oven and drain off any excess grease. 
  4. Now pour over the tomato sauce and top with the remaining 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese. Return the dish to the oven and bake for a further 5 to 10 minutes until the cheese has melted. 
Serving Suggestion: To keep the dish low carb, serve with zucchini noodles. If adding carbs, serve with rice or pasta.
