Moroccan Turkey Meatballs with Barley and Lentils

Chef Tip: For a freezer-friendly dish, prepare recipe through step 2. Toss baked meatballs with sauce, raisins and harissa in a large bowl; transfer to a 2½-quart baking dish and cool slightly. Cover dish tightly with plastic wrap then foil, and freeze up to 2 months. To bake meatballs, preheat oven to 375°; remove plastic wrap and foil. Bake meatballs from frozen, tightly covered with foil, 1 hour or until internal temperature reaches 165°. Dietitian Tip: Cut prep time by purchasing pre-chopped carrot and onion.
