Introduction

you can put whatever seasonings suit you in this recipe but this is what I used. you can also increase the meat to bean ratio if you want to. this pairs well with pasta and marinara sauce :) this recipe makes 24 large meatballs. one serving equals one meatball [for easier calculations if only eating two or maybe eating four you know?] you can put whatever seasonings suit you in this recipe but this is what I used. you can also increase the meat to bean ratio if you want to. this pairs well with pasta and marinara sauce :) this recipe makes 24 large meatballs. one serving equals one meatball [for easier calculations if only eating two or maybe eating four you know?]

Ingredients

    1 lb ground beef
    1 15.5 oz can chick peas, whole can
    1 tbsp italian seasoning
    1 tbsp garlic powder
    1 tbsp fresh cilantro
    1 whole onion
    1/2 raw red pepper

Directions

mash up chick peas in food processor or masher. chop up veggies. add meat and seasonings to veggies and chick peas in large bowl until everything is combined evenly. shape into 24 medium-large meatballs. bake in a 400 degree farenheit oven for about 30 minutes or until done. I used my toaster oven on 400 degrees and used parchment paper so the meatballs would not stick and burn. They came out fine.
