Zucchini Meatballs Recipe by Tasty image

Steps:

  • Cut off the bottoms of each zucchini and use a cheese grater or box grater to shred into a large bowl. Sprinkle salt on top, toss, and let rest in a colander in the sink for 20 minutes to pull out excess moisture.
  • Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
  • Using a dish towel, squeeze out excess liquid from the shredded zucchini. Move the zucchini to a dry bowl and add the egg, ricotta bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, basil, parsley, pepper, olive oil, onion, and garlic. Stir until evenly mixed, then form the mixture into golf ball-sized balls.
  • Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until browned, flipping halfway through.
  • Serve over pasta with marinara sauce.
  • Enoy!

ZUCCHINI BALLS

These can be served for dinner, in place of meatballs, with pasta and marinara (meatless tomato) sauce which is the way I usually serve them. They can also be served as an appetizer, with sauce on the side for dipping.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Lightly grease a cookie sheet.
  • Mix all ingredients together in a medium sized bowl.
  • Form mixture into small balls (about 1 rounded tablespoon each).
  • Place on cookie sheet and flatten slightly, bake for 15 minutes on each side at 350°F.
  • Add balls to a marinara sauce and simmer, covered, for 30 minutes.
  • Check during simmering to see if more sauce needs to be added.
  • Serve with pasta and sauce.
  • **NOTE: If you are going to substitute large zucchini for the small ones called for in the recipe, you should squeeze the grated zucchini dry before adding the rest of the ingredients. Large zucchinis contain much more water than small ones, and may cause the mixture to be too wet to hold together.

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, grated
4 -6 small zucchini, grated
3 tablespoons parmesan cheese
1 cup breadcrumbs
2 eggs, plus
2 egg whites
fresh ground pepper, to taste
16 -20 ounces marinara sauce
