WHEAT GERM MEATBALLS



Wheat Germ Meatballs image

Awesome meatballs that are actually sort of healthy! Well...they have fiber... All the amounts are approximate to give you an idea of the ratios. Normally I just wing it until the "pre balled" meat lump looks like a lump of bread dough and is no longer excessively sticky yet not dry.

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 lb ground beef
1/2 cup barbecue sauce (I like hickory smoked)
1 tablespoon italian seasoning
1 egg
1 cup wheat germ

Steps:

  • Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Mix together everything except the wheat germ. It should be sticky and not stay together. Use your hands!
  • Add the wheatgerm and mix it up. It should look like bread dough. It should hold together, but not be dry and hard.
  • Roll into balls and place in an oil sprayed Pyrex.
  • At this point you can brush with some more bbq sauce but it is not necessary.
  • Cook for 45 min or until they are finished to your liking.
  • YUM!

RUTH'S GERMAN BOILED MEATBALLS AND GRAVY



Ruth's German Boiled Meatballs and Gravy image

This is my Mom's version of German meatballs. Her mother used to make these but of course never used a recipe - she never even had a stove - always used a coal burning stove! Mom kept working on it and used a few more conventional ingredients and came up with this recipe. She always served it over extra-wide egg noodles.

Vegan Meatballs(Isolated Soy Free) image

These vegan meatballs are isolated soy free. They are full of flavor! They make a great companion to your favorite spaghetti dish or try them in a meatball sub. Three large meatballs only have 8 grams of fat, not bad when you consider they can be eaten with pasta and tomato sauce. From My Vegan Cookbook.

Time 45m

Yield 12 meatballs, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/2 cup cooked lentils
1 cup cooked brown rice
1/4 cup old fashioned oats
1/4 cup wheat germ plus 2 tablespoons wheat germ
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon chipolte chili powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
2 teaspoons molasses
2 teaspoons dry mustard

Steps:

  • Mix ingredients together in a bowl.
  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  • Measure out 2 tablespoons of mixture for each meatball and roll into a ball with your hands. Spray cooking sheet and place meatballs on it. Place into oven and cook 15 minutes on one side and roll over and cook 15 minutes on the other side.
  • After they are out of the oven, let stand for about 10 minutes to allow them to firm up.
  • NOTE:.
  • If making Recipe#511822-Vegan Italian Meatball Soup, the meatballs need to be prepared differently. Omit 1 Tablespoon of the olive oil and replace it with 1 tablespoon of water. We want to make the meatballs smaller for this soup so instead of making the meatballs with 2 tablespoons for each meatball measure them out using 1/2 a tablespoon. Also, cook 10 minutes on each side instead of 15 minutes like the recipe originally states.
