Turkey Meatballs Sliders in Pumpkin Spice Sauce

I just created these tonight! The Husband and Kids loved them.
I didn't really measure anything. I just eyeballed the ingredients.
I think I will try them in a crock pot next time.

2.5 lbs of turkey chop meat
2 eggs
1 1/2- 2 cups of Panko crusted bread crumbs
1 tsp sage
1/2tsp thyme
1/2tsp rosemary
1tsp garlic powder
1tsp pumpkin spice
1/2tsp cloves
1/2tsp all spice
1 16 oz can of chicken stock
1 can of pumpkin
2 tbsp brown sugar
1/4 cup of honey

Preheat oven to 350. Put some oil of your choice in a saute pan on the stove top.
Mix and mush chop meat, eggs, breadcrumbs & spices. Roll into medium balls and then flatten them out a little. Kind of like part meatball part patty. Put them in saute pan on med/low cover and lightly brown each side. I sprinkled some extra pumpkin spice on them as they were sauteing. While they are sauteing in a pot dump the can of pumpkin, brown sugar, honey and chicken stock and add additional spices to the sauce. Mix well and cover until it comes to a slight boil. Remove meatball sliders from the saute pan and place them in an oven pan than pour over sauce. Bake for about 30 min. All ovens vary and depending on the size of the meatballs. You may have to cook them a little longer. Cut one in half to make sure it is done in the middle.
I served it with brown rice and honey glazed carrots. Enjoy!
