Grandchildren

The last time I visited my grandsons in LA my Grandson, Isaac asked me to make meatballs. I have only made meatball once in my life and that was before his dad was born. So I went into the kitchen and made up this meatball recipe. I have made it twice now, and I have to say - it works.

Here is a picture and recipe:

Yummy Meatballs. 1lb. ground beef 1lb. sausage 1 T minced garlic 1 onion - finely chopped 2 stalks of celery - finely chopped 1 red bell pepper - finely chopped 2 eggs salt and pepper to taste ¼ - ½ cup of flour - or almond meal Mix everything together until well mixed. Form meatballs. Brown in small batches on stove in hot oil (I used coconut oil), remove from oil when browned all over and keep working in small batches until complete. I let the meatballs sit in an iron skillet until I finished browning them all, and some of the oil cooked out of them, which I strained off before adding meatballs marinara sauce to finish cooking. You could also cook them separately in the oven @ 350’ for 30 to 40 minutes.
