Beef and Liver Meatballs

If you are trying to get more organ meat in your diet, but haven’t acquired the taste for it. This great tasting recipe is for you! Something in the ingredients (maybe the cinnamon?) hides the liver taste almost completely. Even my kids loved them!

• 1 lb Ground Beef
• 1/4 lb Beef Liver finely chopped
• 2 tsp Smoked Paprika
• 1 tsp Garlic Powder
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1 tsp Black Pepper
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• Optional: 1/2 cup Diced Onions
• 1/2 cup of RAO’s marinara (or your favorite low sugar/carb sauce)

Process

1. Preheat the oven to bake at 350.
2. In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine ground beef and beef liver.
3. Season with smoked paprika, garlic powder, cinnamon, black pepper, and salt. Continue to mix with hands until meat is equally seasoned.
4. Mix in the diced onion.
5. Form meat mixture into balls, slightly larger than an ounce.
6. Place in a baking dish and bake meat balls for 25 minutes.
