1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

balls each with 1/2 cup sauce.

Cover with a tight-fitting lid and reduce heat to medium. Cook 15 minutes.

Remove from heat and let sit uncovered for 20 minutes. Yields about 3 cups.

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1/4 cup chopped carrots

2 cups chopped white mushrooms

1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper

1/8 cup chopped yellow onion

1/2 cup chopped celery

1 clove garlic

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1/2 tablespoon dried parsley

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

1 large egg

3 large egg whites

1 cup matzo meal -- or more if needed

salt -- to taste

6 cups marinara sauce

 

In food processor, finely chop carrot. Add remaining vegetables and garlic

and chop to a fine paste, scraping down sides of work bowl several times.

 

In large saute pan, heat oil over medium heat. Add processed vegetables,

parsley and black pepper; saute until soft, about 7 minutes. Remove from

In large bowl, beat egg and egg whites together until blended, about 30

seconds. Add vegetable mixture to eggs; mix until combined. Stirring

about 1 1/2 tablespoons mixture per ball. Balls can be frozen at this point

or simmered in sauce for 30 minutes. Alternatively, balls can be baked in

1/2 cup sauce.
