Ingredients:
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1 small onion, minced
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 celery stalk, minced
- 1/4 cup minced parsley
- 1 lb 93% lean beef
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 tsp allspice
- 2 cups reduced sodium beef stock
- 2 oz light cream cheese
In a large deep saute pan, heat oil on medium heat, add onions and garlic; sauté until onions are translucent, about 4-5 minutes. Add celery and parsley and cook until soft, about 3-4 more minutes. Let cool a few minutes.
In a large bowl combine beef, egg, onion mixture, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper and allspice. Mix well and form meatballs with your hands 1/8 cup each (fill 1/4 cup then divide the meat in half).
Add beef stock to the pan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and slowly drop meatballs into the broth. Cover and cook about 20 minutes. Remove the meatballs with a slotted spoon and set aside in a serving dish. Strain the stock, add to blender with cream cheese and pulse until smooth. Return to pan and simmer a few minutes to thicken, then pour over meatballs.
Each Serving is 5 meatballs and 4pts! It should make around 22 meatballs. Pair this with a nice salad and your good to go.
I didn't add the celery stalk because I didn't want to buy a bag of celery just for one stalk and I seriously didn't miss the taste of it in my meatball ;)
