Kristy's Mediterranean Turkey Meatballs

These turkey meatballs are bursting with flavor! The savory garlic mixed with the melted warm feta chunks and sundried tomatoes will make your taste buds smile (if they could). The cool creamy lime dipping sauce was the perfect dip for these deliciously moist meatballs.
