Hidden Veggie Meatballs


  • Author: The road to loving my Thermo Mixer
  • Total Time: 35
  • Yield: 20 1x

Description

Serve as is or or with a delicious homemade tomato sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 500g lean mince
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 onion or leek, roughly chopped
  • A few sprigs of parsley
  • A few sprigs of basil
  • 300400g veggies of choice (Use whatever veggies you have on hand. My meatballs vary every week depending what is left in the fridge. Celery, carrots, zucchini, spinach, capsicum, herbs, potato all work well).

Instructions

  1. Place everything except mince into the bowl and blitz on speed 9 for 10 seconds. Scrape down and blitz on speed 9 for 10 secs.
  2. Add mince and turbo 5 times or until combined.
  3. Roll into balls. If you are finding it hard to roll in a ball just add a little breadcrumbs to the mix. Depending on the veg you use the meatballs may be a bit “wet” (Zucchinis and celery release a bit of liquid).
  4. Bake at 180 degrees for approximately 25 minutes with or without a sauce.

Notes

  • If you are using your own homemade mince you may need to add some breadcrumbs to this to bind the meatballs.
