Wet bread with water, squeezing excess out. Tear into small pieces and place in a large bowl.
Combine with turkey, egg, zucchini, breadcrumbs, garlic, onion, mint, parsley, oregano, salt and pepper.
Using a ¼-cup measure, form each meatball into ¼-cup in size, slightly flattened into patties. For best results, refrigerate before cooking to help hold their shape.
Spray olive oil in a large nonstick frying pan and cook over very low heat, until cooked through, turning halfway, for about 5 minutes on each side.
