Now That's a Spicy Meat-A-Ball!! ( Meatball ) image

A mexican-flavored meatball. Smoky, spicy, zippy and fresh. Delicious served with penne pasta and my Cilantro-Cumin Bechamel Recipe #168658. You can simmer these in beef broth as I listed or you can simmer them in a sauce of your own choosing. I save the beef broth and freeze it to use as a soup base. Mmmm!
