Instructions

1. For the Meatballs Preheat oven to 350 degrees F Add all meatball ingredients to a bowl and mix until well combined.

5. Stir until well combined and a ball of dough forms.
6. Roll out dough in between 2 sheets of parchment paper using a rolling pin.
7. Make it into 2 large rectangular shapes (each one to fit the size of your cookie sheet) that are about 1/4 inch thick.
8. Remove the top layer of parchment and cut dough into 12 square-ish parts (6 per rectangle) using a rolling pizza cutter.
9. Leave on bottom layer of parchment and transfer to a cookie sheet.
10. Bake for each rectangle for 1 minute just to make it a bit easier to work with but not enough to cook it.
