Spanish meatballs

By: Leah

In the original recipe the meatballs finish cooking in a tomato sauce. I thought it would be simpler (and less messy) to simply serve the meatballs. They are oven-baked, so relatively healthy. I prepared these the day before and reheated them before serving, but they were delicious straight from the oven, and you could also serve them cold if that is your preference.
