GREEK MEAT BALLS





1 1/2 lbs. ground beef

1/2 cup canned tomatoes


1 large onion, finely chopped


3 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced


salt and pepper


2 eggs, beaten


6 cups bouillon





Combine all ingredients except bouillon, kneading after eggs are added. Roll lightly into 1 to 1 1/2 inch balls. Bring bouillon to a boil and drop in meatballs. Reduce heat to a simmer, then cover and cook for 20-30 minutes. Meatballs are cooked when they rise to the surface.





Sauce:





2 eggs, beaten


juice of one lemon





To make egg and lemon sauce, beat eggs well, stir in lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of broth (in which the meatballs were cooked).


Makes an unusual hors d'oeuvre.

I use a mixture of ground beef and ground pork (not sausage). It gives the meatballs a little more flavor and keeps them moist. I add finely chopped onion, garlic, salt, pepper, dried Italian herb seasoning, a few red pepper flakes, dried unseasoned bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, and a couple of beaten eggs to bind everything together. You can saute these in a pan, or bake them in the oven to cut down on the fat. After cooking, you can serve them over pasta with marinara or meat sauce, or serve them as appetizers with a sweet and sour or barbecue sauce.
My DIL made these yesterday to take to a party last night and we tried them They are fantastic. A little different meatball for a party and delicious. Sue


I believe she got the recipe from Taste Of Home she said.





I've made all of these recipes at one time or another and they're all good.





Apple Meatballs











1 egg





2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted





1/4 cup crushed seasoned stuffing





1 envelope onion soup mix





2-1/2 pounds lean ground beef











SAUCE:





2 bottles (18 ounces each) barbecue sauce (she uses sweet Baby Rays)





1 jar (12 ounces) apple jelly





1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce





In a large bowl, combine the first four ingredients. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into 1-in. balls. In a skillet, brown the meatballs; drain. Transfer to a greased 3-qt. baking dish. In a large saucepan, combine the sauce ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer for 10 minutes. Pour over meatballs. Cover and bake at 325掳 for 30 minutes or until meat is no longer pink. Yield: 72 meatballs. Use pretzel sticks instead of toothpicks for serving appetizer meatballs. They taste great and reduce waste and mess.
