 Meat Balls:

Ingredients:

Ground Beef
1 Teaspoon Chili Powder
1/2 tsp Himalayan Pink Salt
Mrs. Dash lemon pepper
1 Pastured Egg
1 Small Onion Diced
2 Cloves Garlic Minced
1 Tablespoons Organic Olive Oil
1 Teaspoon Nutritional Yeast
1 Teaspoon of Parsley
1 Teaspoon Coconut Aminos
1 Teaspoon Fish Sauce
Sweet Chili Sauce

Directions:

Chop onions and saute until tender in olive oil add minced garlic and cook until done.
Add this to your ground beef.  Add egg and spices and mix.  It will be really moist.  Put olive oil in your pan and heat.  We cooked on medium low on our stove but they vary.  Don't cook too high or fast so they don't dry out. Make balls and place in the pan with the warmed oil.  Let sit until they firm up and carefully roll. Pour sweet chili sauce over the top.
