Hidden Veggie Meatballs Recipe by Tasty image

Steps:

  • Place shredded carrot and zucchini on a clean towel and wring out as much liquid as possible.
  • Place strained carrot and zucchini in a bowl and add ground beef, ground pork, parmesan, onion, parsley, salt, pepper, garlic powder, breadcrumbs, and eggs. Mix until just combined.
  • Grab about a ¼ cup (85 grams) of the mixture and roll into a ball.
  • Pan-fry the meatballs in a large pan over medium-high heat until all sides are golden brown, about 10 minutes, then add the marinara sauce and simmer for 10-15 minutes. Or, can bake the meatballs on a parchment-lined baking sheet at 350˚F (180˚C) for 30-35 minutes, flipping after the first 15 minutes. Warm up marinara sauce and serve on the side.
  • Serve the meatballs with cooked spaghetti and Parmesan cheese.
  • Enjoy!

  • Cook the pasta following pack instructions. Meanwhile, blitz the sauce with a hand blender until smooth, season and return to the heat to keep warm while the pasta cooks. Drain the pasta and toss through the sauce. Serve in bowls topped with shaved Parmesan and rocket leaves, if you like.
