“The Grub” Meatballs

Added on January 6th, 2012 by our friend from http://cleaneatsinthezoo.com/index/

Cooking Steps

Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. In a large bowl, combine all remaining ingredients and mix with hands until well incorporated.

Form into golf ball-sized meatballs (or a tad larger). Place into heated pan and cover for about 6 minutes. Remove lid, flip meatballs over with tongs, and cook, uncovered, for another 4-5 minutes. Remove and set aside and repeat with remaining meatballs. I kept mine covered with foil on the “warm” setting in the oven while I cooked the rest.

  1. Made these last night and the whole family LOVED them. Even the picky toddler who ate more than his older brothers!

  2. Made these this week and LOVED them. Already want to make them again!!

  3. I didn’t have celery but I did have a green bell pepper and zucchini. They worked just fine! We ate the meatballs with sliced avocado which was amazing!

  4. Only thing I’d add is some Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. I tend to open the can (I use Herdez because they don’t have anything funky I can’t pronounce in the ingredients) and blend it in the blender till smooth, then I portion it into an ice cube tray and place in the freezer. When frozen I pop out and store in a ziplock till I have use of a perfectly portioned blocks of chipotle in adobo sauce.
