Robert's Meatball Recipe


The recipe includes the following ingredients:
  • 2 pounds of 96% lean ground beef
  • ~ 1/2 pint of egg whites
  • 1/2 cup of oatmeal...
  • 4 oz of tomato paste
Mix the ingredients thoroughly in a mixing bowl. This recipe should make about 10 meatballs at 4oz each for the ladies and 5 meatballs at 8oz. Divide the mix up into the appropriate size meat balls and cook on a cookie sheet. Preheat the oven to 375deg. Cook the meatballs at 375deg for 24 minutes. If you want the meat balls to be a little juicier, add more egg whites to the mix and a little less oatmeal.

One meat ball will satisfy the protein requirements for one meal if you are eating 5 times each day. You can also substitute 99% lean ground turkey meat for the lean ground beef. It is important that you use the leanest ground beef. When you use the fattier meat, you add a huge amount of unneeded calories to the meal.
