Meatballs

1 lb ground beef

1/2 a medium onion

1/2 a medium green pepper

1 egg yolk

1 slice of whole wheat bread

1/4 cup ground flax seed

Herbs of your choice

oil (optional)

Preheat oven to 350.

Chop onion and green pepper coarsely, then put through a food processor to achieve a fine mince.  

Toast bread, and put through a food processor to create bread crumbs.  

Combine all ingredients except oil in a large bowl and "knead" it all together so it is combined, then form into small balls (see note below).

Heat oil in pan.  Add uncooked meatballs and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-10 minutes.  

Place meatballs on a baking sheet.  Cook at 350 for 30 minutes or until done.  

Meat, uncooked, ready to be cut into meatballs.  And yes, you should definitely have a glass of wine while making the meatballs!

Finished meatballs.

Difficulty	Easy
Does it freeze well?	Yes
Would I eat it?	Yes
Does A like it?	Yes

Notes: For ease of forming meatballs, I like to spread the uncooked meat in a large rectangle, then cut it into squares with a large knife.

I'll be honest.  These ended up a little burnt, so I ended up saving them for adult spaghetti and meatballs.  A did try one from Daddy though, and loved it!
