TEXAS TAMALE BALLS

Steps:

• 1. Mix meats, V-8 juice, and eggs.
• 2. Combine dry ingredients.
• 3. Add the dry ingredients to the meat mixture. Be sure that all dry mix is evenly blended with meat.
• 4. Pinch off a small amount and roll into marble or bite-size balls. NOTE: I used a small cookie scoop (either way works fine).
• 5. Place on two large cookie sheets with sides.
• 6. Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes depending on the size of the balls.

HEALTHY MEATLOAF & MEATBALLS WITH GRAVY OAMC

Steps:

• Position oven racks near the center of the oven to allow room for the two pans.
• Preheat oven to 450°F Line 2 jelly roll pans (low-sided baking pans) with foil; spray with a cooking oil spray, such as Pam.
• In a large bowl, combine the meats, eggs, soup mix, breadcrumbs and milk. Make sure it's very well mixed - you don't want to see streaks of turkey or beef. A stand mixer with a paddle blade on low speed makes quick work of it.
• At this point, you can form the meat mixture into one meatloaf and meatballs as I do, or all meatballs or two meatloaves as you wish. Meatloaf should be formed directly on a jelly roll pan. Shape it into an oval about 3" high. Please don't use a loaf pan. Cooking it in a loaf pan will result in a steamed texture. Cooking it in an open pan will allow a nice brown crust to form.
• Spray top and sides of meatloaf with Pam.
• Put meatloaf into the oven and REDUCE oven temperature to 375°F Bake 45 - 60 minutes. Test for doneness with thermometer - 160°F.
• Remember, this contains poultry, it MUST be well done. When done, remove to a platter, slice and serve with gravy. To freeze, slice, allow to cool and wrap individual slices airtight. Thaw before re-heating.
• While the meatloaf starts cooking, form the rest of the meat mixture into 1" meatballs. A small ice cream style scoop works well and makes uniform sized balls. Place the balls on a jelly roll pan. Spray meatballs with Pam and bake 30 - 40 minutes, turning after 20 minutes. Test for doneness (160F). Freeze meatballs on the pan, after they are frozen, remove to a ziptop freezer bag.
• To serve, combine gravy ingredients in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add frozen meatballs and simmer for 7-10 minutes, then drain and add to gravy. Good with noodles.

• 1. In a large mixing bowl combine the first 11 ingredients to form tamale balls.

• 3. In a large pot combine the remaining ingredients for tamale ball sauce.
• 4. Add formed balls to sauce and cook over low heat for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until tamale balls are fully cooked. Tamale balls will increase in size due to the cornmeal and become like a tamale.
