Pecan Parmesan Meatballs
- Crumbs: enough Dr Kracker (any flavor) to make ½ cup of crumbs
1/3 cup pecans.
Grind to crumbs or meal in a food processor.
Mix into:
- 1# ground beef (preferably grass-fed)
- 1 large egg (we enjoy pasture raised eggs)
- ¼ cup grated Reggiano cheese
- ¼ tsp sea salt
- ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper.
Combine, shape into meatballs, and sauté before adding to your favorite red sauce. I was pleasantly surprised at how unmistakable the pecan flavor was in the ground meat.
