The Easiest Recipes With Ground Beef
Easy Low Fat Meat Balls
This has to be the easiest of recipes with ground beef or mince as it's known in UK and Australia. Best of all, these are low fat meat balls. These easy meat balls are mixed together and popped in a hot pan to fry. This recipe makes 50 medium sized meat balls so that half can be frozen to be reheated for another meal.
Low Fat 1. Buy only premium grade ground beef. This meat will have less fat in it and there's less waste.
2. As you know, very few of my recipes use oil and it is the same with these easy ground beef meat balls. Use a non-stick electric fry pan so that there's no need for oil AND so you can cook 25 of the meat balls in one go.
Removing oil for cooking from your diet means you keep your slim hips for a little longer!
3. While other recipes call for sour cream, it is much better to replace it with low fat cream cheese and increase the amount of stock.
4. You won't have the bother of pouring off excess fat with this recipe with ground beef using these low fat instructions.
