Breadless Meatballs

Came up with this one tonight - off the cuff! :)

1lb Ground chicken/turkey
1 Egg
1 tbsp Herbs de Provence
1 c. Grated reduced fat mozzarella
2 tbsp finely diced onion
4 Garlic cloves
2 tbsp Olive Oil

Start by warming 1 tbsp oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook in oil until onions are translucent. Stir often to avoid over cooking. Also, keep heat on medium - cooking garlic on high heat can cause it to turn bitter.

Once onion/garlic mixture is done, mix all ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl (it works best to use your hands). Add remaining tbsp of oil to your pan and spoon golf-ball sized balls into pan. Cook until firm, but not hard. Mushy balls are not cooked through! :)

These are good in soup, with spaghetti, on a salad, or even a meatball sandwich! :)

Enjoy! :)
