Steps:
- Mix eggs in large bowl. Add cheese, bread crumbs & baking powder. Fill half of a frying pan with oil, heat until ready to fry. Pour 1T of mixture in oil, fill the pan with as many scoops as possible, do not overlap. When the sides of each ball look cooked and middle mushy, flip. Cook until balls fluff and are cooked fully through. These are great alone or soaked in sauce (they will absorb a lot of sauce, make extra)
RICOTTA MEATLESS MEATBALLS WITH SAUCE
"Polpette di ricotta al sugo", as these are known in Italian, are meatless balls made out of ricotta cheese and homemade bread crumbs. Think meatballs, but without the meat! The soft balls are then simmered in a simple homemade tomato sauce. I like to serve these with a side of greens, such as broccoli rabe.

Steps:
- Line a baking sheet or large plate with waxed paper.
- Combine ricotta cheese and eggs in a large bowl; mix well. Add bread crumbs, Pecorino Romano cheese, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper; mix until thoroughly blended.
- Take a scoop of the mixture with a small cookie scoop and put it in the palm of your hands. Roll it into a ball and place on the waxed paper. Repeat until all of the mixture has been shaped into balls. Place in the refrigerator while you make the sauce.
- Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add tomatoes, wine, basil, sugar, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to a simmer.
- Add ricotta balls to the sauce. Simmer, shaking the pan occasionally to cover the balls with sauce, until heated through, about 10 minutes. Serve immediately.

SICILIAN MEATBALLS
Family recipe that goes way back. My mother said her uncle would always take a little of the meat and fry her a "hamburger" in the skillet as the rest were in the oven. It's a lot of work, but the results are way worth it. If you are going to make this, make a bunch and freeze it!!!! LOL

Steps:
- Mince or press the garlic, and chop the parsley into fine pieces (or you can cut the measurement and use dried parsley flakes).
- Grate the onion and place in a bowl.
- Add all of the ingredients above, except for the olive oil, and mix together in the bowl.
- Form balls into the size of golf balls and then dip your hand (or brush) in the oil and then rub it on the balls.
- Place on cookie sheet and brown at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
- I usually add these to my marinara sauce, but you can eat them many other ways as well!

MEATLESS MEATBALLS IN MARINARA SAUCE
These "meatballs" use plant-based ground meat, and a combination of onions, garlic and tamari give them a satisfying chew and robust flavor. Because there's no egg for binding, these are slightly more delicate than other meatballs, so use a light touch when shaping them, and make sure the mixture is very cold. Serve them on their own, covered in marinara sauce, or stuff them into hero rolls for sandwiches. They are also excellent over spaghetti.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine bread crumbs, onion, parsley, garlic, tamari, salt, pepper, oregano and red-pepper flakes, if using, and mix well. Add plant-based beef, and blend with your hands until well mixed. Cover mixture and chill for at least an hour or up to 24 hours. (It's easiest to form the meatballs when the mixture is very cold.)
- Heat the broiler. Form 28 meatballs, each about 1 1/4 inches in diameter. Transfer meatballs to one or two rimmed baking sheets, and drizzle with olive oil.
- Broil meatballs until golden and firm, 7 to 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat marinara sauce in a pot. Serve meatballs with sauce on top, showered with cheese if you like and drizzled with a little more olive oil.

- Begin by soaking the crumb of day old Italian bread (6 cups) in milk or a combination of milk and water. Let stand while you prepare the remaining ingredients.
- Squeeze some of the milk from the bread, but not all of it, and transfer to a large mixing bowl. You want to retain much of the moisture. Add grated Parmigiano/Pecorino Romano cheeses; large eggs; freshly chopped parsley; finely minced clove of garlic; salt and pepper. Use your hands to combine all ingredients.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper and drizzle with olive oil.
- Shape meatballs into balls using your hands or a 1 tbsp cookie scoop and place onto the prepared baking sheet. The mixture will be very wet and not firm, in fact your meatballs will be slightly oval shaped and flat. Just like my mom always makes them!
