Foodie Friday: Meatballs

Good afternoon!  Now, if you know me you might be confused by this title some I don’t eat or cook meat, usually. However, times have changed my friends!  Since Noah still can’t handle dairy in his diet I’ve been expanding what I cook. Most of my vegetarian recipes have cheese in them and they are very hard to replace. Vegan cheese can replace cheese in some recipes but in others it just doesn’t work. I always wanted Noah to have the option to eat meat, if he wants to I’ll support that. And boy does he ever! So, I’ve started with some simple recipes that don’t require too much work and I always wear gloves which helps me feel less grossed out by the raw meat. 

These Meatballs are great work pasta, in a sandwich and they freeze well! Enjoy!

Ingredients:

-1lb beef
-2 eggs
-1/2 cup milk (udder what you normally drink. Almond, coconut, rice, regular,etc)
-1 cup breadcrumbs
-1 small white or yellow onion
-2-3 cloves garlic
-1/2 top oregano
-1 top salt
-1 TBSP parsley
– Salt and pepper

First, whisk the eggs and milk together.

Then grate the onion and the garlic. I used a cheese grater and a zester.

Then mix all ingredients into a bowl. It’s easiest to mix by using your hands.

Once all ingredients are mixed take small portions and roll out into a ball.

Put the balls onto a baking sheet

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

I hope you enjoy these! Noah sure does!
