Italian Meatballs for 2

• 1 pound turkey, ground
• 2 each egg
• 3/4 cup Ezekiel or spelt bread. crumbled
• 1/4 cup parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
• 1/4 cup pecorino romano, grated (from sheep or soy if for A, AB, O; from regular dairy if for B)
• Salt and pepper to taste (omit pepper if for A, AB)

• Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl. Toss gently with your hands until the meat has become thoroughly blended with all the seasonings. The mixture should be fairly moist.
• To form the meatballs, wet your hands in a small bowl of lukewarm water and then pick up about 1/3 C. of the meatball mix. Roll it in the palm of your hands to form a smooth ball about 1 in. in diameter.
• Drop the meatballs directly into your basic sauce recipe. Or, if you prefer a crusty meatball, fry in approximately 3 T. of olive oil on medium heat for about 5 min., turning to brown evenly. Then drop them into gently boiling sauce as they are browned.
• Meatballs take 20 min. to cook well.
• Yield: 15-18 medium meatballs or 40-45 tiny meatballs
• Fry or bake in oven til done (if you have a convection oven, you don't have to turn them over!)
• Freeze in ziplocs.
• Thaw and reheat.
