Turkish Meatballs

Ingredients:

1 lb ground beef or lamb *local grass fed if possible

2 T ground flax seed, ground *a coffee grinder works great to grind flax seeds

1 carrot, grated
1 small onion, chopped 

1 celery stalk, chopped celery

1/2 tsp ground cumin

1/2 tsp dried mint
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp allspice

1/4 tsp sea salt

1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Directions:

Mix all ingredients together in a bowl.

Roll into bite size balls and place a baking sheet with sides. Or use my favorite method...a mini muffin pan and just plop the meat mixture into the muffin tin.

Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes....whenever they are done.

Serve with traditional Turkish Cacik
