Mini Meatballs - Italian image

Meatballs are always a hit. You can serve them as an appetizer with dip or as a main dish with pasta, rice or in soup! Naturally The grated carrot keeps these lean meatballs juicy and gets your kids (and picky adults!) to eat veggies without even knowing it. This is a recipe from the Canadian beef industry. Enjoy!
