Number Of Ingredients 14

1/3 cup plain bread crumbs
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 onion (diced)
1 pound ground beef
1 pound ground pork
2 eggs
1/4 bunch fresh parsley (chopped)
3 cloves garlic (minced)
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon dried Italian herb seasoning
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

Soak bread crumbs in milk in a small bowl for 20 minutes. This will remove the grainy texture some meatballs have.
Turn Ninja Foodi to Seart/Sauté on MD:HI. Add oil and onions. Cook onions until translucent.
Mix beef and pork together in a large bowl. Stir onions, bread crumb mixture, eggs, parsley, garlic, salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, Italian herb seasoning, and Parmesan cheese into meat mixture. Mix well.
Form meat mixture into balls about 1 1/2 inches in diameter.
Turn Ninja Foodi to Sear/Sauté MD:HI. Brown all sides of the meatballs in batches in the Foodi.
These are not cooked all the way through, but you can add to spaghetti and pressure cook, or throw in the oven for about 15-20 minutes At 425°. Or freeze until you decide how to use them.

Time 26m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb beef (round or shoulder roast, cut into 1 to 2 inch pieces)
1/3 cup breadcrumbs, Parmesan Herb
1/3 cup milk
1 egg, large
2 ounces cheese, Parmesan
2 cloves, garlic, peeled
1 tablespoon parsley flakes
1/2 teaspoon oregano, dry
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, ground

Steps:

Place all ingredients in Master Prep Bowl. Secure top and pulse for 10-15 seconds, until meat is ground.
Carefully remove blades from Pitcher, and then scoop outr meatball mixture, one extremely rounded tablespoon at a time. Use your palms to form into perfectly round balls.
Cook using your favorite method for cooking meatballs, or bake on a greased sheet pan in a 350 degree oven for about 25 minutes; until a meat thermometer registers the internal temperature has reached 160 degrees.
Serve over pasta with marinara sauce or on hoagie rolls with sauce and provolone cheese.
BOB'S TIPS: For even moister meatballs, simmer them in marinara sauce for 20-30 minutes until cooked through. If sauce reduces too much , add a little bit of water to thin it out(though, you have to love a hearty tomato sauce).
