"Meat"-balls, finally a really good recipe!

Friday, September 30, 2011
Ok, as usual I tweaked the original recipe so I'll give you the link. Look over the recipe and read the commets, they often have some great tips.
original recipe here Veggie Balls


I did not use the soup mix. I added a bunch of spices - dried onions, salt, pepper, italian seasoning, garlic. Use what you love and have fun experimenting with different flavor combinations. 


I kept the egg, breadcrumbs, walnut*, and cheese the same.


*If you take these to a potluck or serve them to anyone other than your family PLEASE make sure you mention that these balls contain nuts. Nut allergies are very real and very serious. Many people would not expect nuts in meatballs. 


ok so now that we covered that... here are your photos.


This is the mix after chilling in the fridge and then being rolled into balls.


 After baking. I turned then over after 10 minutes. They flattened out a bit. If you want a lighter colored and more round ball I would turn them every 5 minutes. I didn't care that much. lol





We were making subs so I used sauce instead of the broth suggested in the recipe. Baked for an hour.



Done and partially eaten. They were good, even good just out of the pan!
