Easy Oriental Teriyaki Meatballs


WELCOME to 2013!

I know all our loyal followers out there have been wondering if we were going to be continuing in 2013 and yes we are!   Again, we will try and make one new recipe a week, taste it and decide if it is a KEEPER or NOT.  Hopefully we can find some fabulous new finds to spice up our and your recipe rotation!

Since the Vikings were in the play offs, we decided to start off with an appetizer in 2013. Notice how I stated “were”.   Hopefully these will come in handy game days!


 
Easy Oriental Teriyaki Meatballs
~sparkpeople.com & Lori Winkels

1 lb 93% Lean Ground Beef
½ cup chopped green onions
2 Tbs. garlic powder
1/3 cup teriyaki sauce
3 tsp. ginger root

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  All ingredients can be adjusted according to taste. Mix all ingredients in a bowl.  Form 8 – 2oz. balls (for meals) or 16 – 1oz. balls (for appetizers).  Place in a baking dish & bake 20-30 minutes. Enjoy!

Tupps Tidbits ~ we thought that 2 Tbs. garlic powder sounded a bit much & so we only added 1 tsp. garlic powder…also, we decided to bake on a baking sheet & put foil down on the baking sheet. for easier clean up

Well the Vikings might have not scored in 2013 but we did with this recipe.  The meatballs were quick, easy and delicious!  SCORE!  Also, if you make 16 servings, they come out to about 50 calories each, which is a nice “snack”.  They are definitely a KEEPER in our house!
