Who doesn’t love delicious balls of savory meat, especially when they are seasoned to Mediterranean perfection? These meatballs are amazing as an appetizer, atop pasta or polenta, or between a baguette as a sandwich. Easily make these gluten free by substituting ground almonds for the panko. Pairs perfectly with our Roasted Red Pepper Pesto.
