Paleo Meatballs

Ingredients:

2 lb Ground Beef Round 85/15
4
Garlic Cloves
1/2 cup Onion
2
Organic Cage Free Fresh Brown Eggs
1 Tbsp
Ground Cumin
1 tsp
Ground Black Pepper
1 tsp
Seasoned Salt
1 tsp
Red Pepper, Crushed
1 Tbsp
Garlic Powder

Instructions:
1. Set oven to 350 degrees.
2. Beat eggs first, then add garlic (finely chopped), onion (finely chopped) and spices and mix.
3. Take ground beef and place in a bowl with ingredients.
4. Using your hands, form ingredients together. Make meatballs that easily fit in your hands and place on baking sheet.
5. Bake meatballs for 20-30 minutes or until cooked thoroughly.

I found that if I brown them in a skillet for a few minutes they hold together better on the baking sheet, but it’s not necessary.  About half way through turn them a bit on the baking sheet to avoid glob-like meatballs. 
I made these ahead of time and threw them in the freezer, then served them with Jennifer’s Spaghetti Sauce. When I make a large batch and freeze, I pull them from the oven a few minutes early since they will be re-cooked slightly when served.
