Asian Meatballs - delicious

 

I don't know who posted the recipe for the Asian Meatballs but thank you,

thank you, thank you.

 

I made them this morning to take to a family gathering on Wednesday. The

veg friendly menu was revised to suit someone on the Atkins diet and the

veggie lasagna was replaced with meat balls and a tray of cold cuts. There

will be salads but I know the Caesar salad will not be vegetarian and the

pasta salad will have shrimp in it so my choices were rather slim.

 

I now have a casserole of meatballs that will taste way better than the

store bought ones that are being served. I will put a sign on them saying

vegetarian " and they will be avoided like the plague. LOL. After I've had

my serving of them, I'll take down the sign and see what happens.

 

I think the flesh eaters would be surprised at how good they are.

 

Of course I may have trouble keeping from eating them between now and

Wednesday. They are delicious!!!

 

One funny note from years ago. We had company and I cooked some chicken

breasts for them. The company kept asking what was in the chicken. I would

say chicken. They would then " NO, what is the chicken made of " . I

finally had to describe in great detail the components of real chicken

pieces, including salmonella, before they would even taste it. Once I gave

them the gruesome details, they were quite happy to eat it. DUMB!!! I have

never served anything to anyone that they could possibly object to but they

hear the word vegetarian and they instantly think weird and scary food.

The recipe for Asian meatballs must have come through while I was on vacation

cause I did not see it. I even looked in the message search and did not find

them. Will someone please repost the recipe or tell me where to find it. It

sounds great.
