Chicken meatballs….Everytime I make meatballs I can’t help but think of the Schweddy Balls sketch from Saturday Night Live.
I giggle every time I see it.
It’s my simple mind. If you have seen it and don’t think it’s funny, you need to reevaluate life goals.

Back to the schweddy balls…I mean meatballs.
I wanted to make a meatball with no egg and no breadcrumbs and no red met.
These are packed with great flavor and hold together just fine without the binders and fillers.
