italian meatballs

October 10th, 2008

You possibly will not think it is possible to lose weight while on a diet which includes italian meatballs but it is possible. It is pivotal to not eat italian meatballs or other high calorie beef/pork/lamb/veal every day but in moderation.

As an example, I allow myself high calorie food one day per week. I eat a reduced calorie diet for most of the week, say 1200 to 2000 calories each day, and then on the 7th day, I eat whatever I like – without going overboard of course.

I have been eating like this for the last few weeks and it has aided me to lose 5 kilos. I have not accelerated my exercise plan or taken any supplements or diet aids. I have just been conscious of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I feel like one day of the week.

I also think it makes things easier if you have professional support when trying to lose weight and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have many tools to show you how to monitor your progress and achieve your goals.

Italian Meatballs
(the real thing!)

From the kitchen of Kathryn Mills – Augusta, Georgia

Parsley (lots)
Garlic powder (lots)
Cheese (lots)
1/2 cup bread crumbs
Salt and pepper (lots)
Basil (lots)
2 eggs
1 pound ground beef or turkey

If you want soft meatballs, add water or milk. This makes 11.

Stir all of the above together until you can form good size meatballs. Add bread crumbs after you have stirred together the rest of the ingredients so you will know how firm it needs to be. Brown in oil with a cut-up garlic clove.

Remove and put on a plate. To drippings, add a large can plum tomatoes (with basil), cut up, 1 can tomato pur?e, 1 can tomato paste and one can of water used to rinse out the paste. To the sauce add salt, pepper, 1/2 teaspoon sugar, cayenne pepper and garlic powder. Cook over medium heat until oil separates at top, about 1 1/2 hours. Add meatballs which have previously been stored in the refrigerator. Cook an additional 30 minutes.
