EASY MEATBALLS

Steps:

• KIDS the writing in bold is for you. GROWN-UPS the rest is for you. Squeeze some sausages. Get your child to squeeze all the sausagemeat out of the skins into a large bowl. They can hold the sausages or do it by squashing them on a board.
• Get grating. Get your child to coarsely grate the onion and finely grate the carrot. If the onion starts to hurt their eyes, get them to wear goggles, which is good fun. Grating can take a bit of strength, so you may need to help. Tip these vegetables in with the sausages. While you have the grater out, grate the Parmesan, other vegetables and garlic for the sauce, and set aside.
• Make a marvellous mix. Next, get your child to add all the other meatball ingredients one by one, except the olive oil, into the bowl and season with black pepper.
• Squish everything together. Get the child to squish everything together through their hands until completely mixed. Keep an eye on younger children to make sure that they don't taste any of the raw mix.
• Roll meatballs. Children as young as three can now roll the meatball mix into walnut-sized balls, then place them on a board or tray. This mix should make 40 balls - counting these is great way to help teach older children basic division. Cover the meatballs with cling film and have a little tidy up.
• Prepare the red peppers. Firstly, peel the peppers with a vegetable peeler, cut off the tops and bottoms and remove the seeds. Cut the peppers in half and children from the age of four can cut the peppers into strips.
• Make the sauce. A grown-up will need to help here. Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add the vegetables and garlic and cook for 5 mins. Stir in the tomato purée, sugar and vinegar, leave for 1 min then tip in the tomatoes and simmer for 5 mins. Get the child to help blitz the sauce with a hand blender. Gently simmer the sauce while you cook the meatballs.
• Cook the meatballs. Brown the meatballs in the olive oil on all sides then pop them into the sauce, working in batches if necessary. Simmer the meatballs in the sauce for 15 mins, gently stirring until they are cooked through. It's ready to eat now or cool and freeze in suitable batches for up to 6 months. Serve with spaghetti, some basil and extra Parmesan, if you like.

EASY CHICKEN MEATBALLS (5 INGREDIENTS!)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Cut the chicken into 1-inch pieces. Palce in the food processor. Pulse until the chicken is starting to grind. Leave the mixer on and let the meat grind. It should take about 1-2 minutes.
• Once the meat is ground, remove the blade. Add in the grated onion, grated garlic, egg, panko, and salt. Use hands to gently combine everything together. Do not overmix.
• Use a small cookie or ice cream scoop to form the chicken mixture into 25 meatballs. Place on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Damp hands with cold water. Roll into uniform meatballs. Place in the oven and bake until golden brown and cooked through, about 12-15 minutes.
• Serve right away or cool completely and store in an airtight containter. Freeze for up to two months.

SIMPLE VEGAN MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 C) and prepare flax egg in a small dish by mixing flaxseed meal and water and let it rest for a few minutes.
• In a large, deep skillet, sauté onion and garlic in 1/2 Tbsp olive oil (as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size) over medium heat until soft and translucent - about 3 minutes. Set aside.
• Add tempeh to food processor and pulse to break down. Then add sautéed garlic, onion, and remaining ingredients (except olive oil) and mix, scraping down sides as needed. You want it to form into a moldable "dough."
• Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. The tempeh will come across as a little bitter, but once coated, baked and served with marinara it's not nearly as apparent.
• NOTE: Depending on how salty your vegan parmesan cheese is, you may need to add a little salt and pepper at this point. However, I didn't find it necessary.
• Scoop out 1 Tbsp amounts of dough and roll into balls. At this time, heat the same skillet you used earlier to medium heat.
• Mix remaining bread crumbs and parmesan cheese together in a shallow dish. Add tempeh balls one or two at a time and roll to coat.
• Add enough olive oil to form a thin layer on the bottom of your hot skillet, then add your coated tempeh balls in two batches, as to not crowd the pan. Brown for about 5 minutes total, shaking the pan to roll them around to brown all sides.
• Add browned meatballs to a baking sheet and add to the oven to bake for about 15 minutes, or longer if desired for a crispier result.
• At this time, prep any pasta your want to serve with your meatballs, as well as your favorite marinara sauce (I love this pizza sauce).
• Once meatballs are deep golden brown and fairly firm to the touch, remove from oven.
• To serve, top cooked pasta with meatballs and pour over marinara sauce. Top with another sprinkle of vegan parmesan cheese and fresh parsley. Leftovers will keep in the fridge for up to a few days, though best when fresh.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, ½ cup Italian breadcrumbs, 1 egg, and minced garlic. Mix well. Form into golf ball sized balls, place onto a plate, and freeze for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet or wok to 350°F.
• Prepare a dredging station. Add flour to one bowl, whisk the 2 remaining eggs in the second bowl, and combine the Panko breadcrumbs, ½ cup of Italian breadcrumbs, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning in the third bowl.
• Remove the meatballs from the freezer. Roll each meatball in the flour until coated. Dip into the eggs, then roll the meatball in the seasoned breadcrumbs. Press the breadcrumbs into the meatball to help them stick. Repeat this process for all of the meatballs.
• Working in batches of 5-6 meatballs at a time, fry the meatballs for 6 minutes. Add the meatballs to the hot oil, flipping them over halfway cooking to evenly brown.
• Arrange the meatballs in a casserole dish. Pour marinara sauce over the meatballs and top with sliced mozzarella.
• Bake for 8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
