  • 1 cup of your favorite gluten-free sliced bread, torn into small pieces with no crust
  • ½ cup grated onion (use that food processor if you can!)
  • ⅓ cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon smashed garlic (~2 cloves)
  • ⅓ cup parmesan, shredded
  • ¾ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 egg
  • 16 ounces ground beef (80/20) or 13 ounces beef and 3 ounces pork
  • olive oil, enough to sear meatballs
  • jar of your favorite pasta sauce
  • fresh basil, torn
Instructions
  1. Mix torn bread and grated onion in a bowl, combining well so that the bread becomes saturated with the juices from the onion.
  2. Combine next 6 ingredients and mix well. Then add meat and combine well once more.
  3. Roll them into consistently sized balls, taking care not to roll too tightly.
  4. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat, brown meatballs on all sides OR place on a foil lined cookie sheet sprayed with cooking spray and bake uncovered in a 400 degree oven for 20 minutes.
  5. Place meatballs in a large sauce pan and cover them with sauce. Simmer meatballs in sauce until completely cooked through, usually about 10-15 minutes.
  6. Serve with, of course, more cheese over pasta, Garnish with basil.
ENJOY!!
