Versatile Saucy Meatballs

Combine the water and bulgur in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on High for 1 minute (see Tip); do not drain. Cool slightly.

Stir egg, desired seasoning, salt and pepper into bulgur mixture. Add ground turkey (or beef); mix well. Shape into 24 meatballs. Place in a microwave-safe 2-quart square baking dish. Cover with vented plastic wrap. Microwave on High for 4 minutes, rearranging once; drain off liquid.

Pour undrained stewed tomatoes over meatballs. Cover with vented plastic wrap. Microwave on High for 1 to 3 minutes more or until meatballs are no longer pink in centers (165 degrees F). Sprinkle with basil, cilantro or green onion.
