Melissa's Spicy Swedish Meatballs




I love playing around with spices and flavors. These are definitely YUMMY and they last for days!

Melissa's Spicy Swedish Meatballs

1 lb of lean ground beef (grass fed/organic)
1 onion
2 garlic cloves
1/2 green pepper
1/2 red pepper
2 tsp chipotle pepper
1 tsp cayenne pepper
2 tsp red pepper flakes
1 cup quick oats (I use gluten free oats)
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp sea salt
1 egg
2 egg whites

Pre-heat oven to 350F. In a food processor grind onions, peppers and garlic. Place all ingredients together in a bowl. Mix with your hands. Then make racquetball size balls and place in a well greased dozen sized muffin tray. Bake at 350F for 20-30minutes.

I typically have 2 of these with tons of veggies on the side. Delish! Oh and I should add that Trader Joe's has conveniently packed bags of frozen red, yellow and green peppers. Love having these off hand!
