  • Meatballs:
  • ground beef - 2 pounds
  • egg yolks - 2
  • salt - ½ teaspoon
  • pepper - ½ teaspoon
  • dried thyme - 1 teaspoon
  • garlic powder - ½ teaspoon
  • onion powder - ½ teaspoon
  • dried parsley - 1 teaspoon
  • ghee - 2 tablespoons
  • Sauce:

Instructions
  1. Veggies:
  2. Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  3. Place the veggies in a 9 inch by 13 inch glass baking dish. Toss with ghee, salt, and pepper.
  4. Roast for 30 minutes, stirring once or twice.
  5. Meatballs:
  6. While the veggies cook, make the meatballs. In a large mixing bowl, combine the beef, egg yolks, salt, pepper, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, and parsley. Mix well with you hands and form into small meatballs, a bit smaller than golf balls.
  7. In a large skillet, heat the ghee over medium heat. Brown the meatballs in batches, cooking a couple minutes per side, to get them nice and brown on all sides. Remove the meatballs from the pan.
  8. Add all of the sauce ingredients to the hot skillet and mix well. Bring to a simmer. Add the meatballs to the sauce.
  9. Simmer for 20 minutes or so, or until the meatballs are cooked through.
