Introduction
These meatballs receive their nutritional boost from the pumpkin, in lieu of eggs. They come out moist and you cannot detect any pumpkin taste. This recipe can be cut in half for a family of four. I like to make extra to freeze so I can throw them in sauce or make subs anytime. These meatballs receive their nutritional boost from the pumpkin, in lieu of eggs.
