Turkey Meatball Subs
You can still enjoy a meatball sub while watching what you eat! Simply use lean ground turkey to prepare the meatballs and use cheese sparingly. I always have these meatballs on hand for either subs, pasta or just on their own. They are easy to prepare a large batch and freeze portions for any day.

Are the five WW points with or without the roll?
Without, rolls can vary too much in nutrition content to include them in the calculation.
These look great! I love the use of oats!
