My boyfriend didn’t like meatballs until he tried mine, and now we both love them.

Steps

1

Heat a little oil in a pot—just enough to sauté the sauce or broth you’ll make.
2

In a blender, combine the tomatoes, onion, 1 cup water (240 ml), and chipotle peppers to taste, depending on how spicy you want it.
3

Return to the pot and pour in the blended sauce. Sauté the sauce.
4

In a bowl, mix the ground beef, eggs, 1/2 tablespoon salt, and breadcrumbs. Stir until well combined.
5

Once the sauce starts to boil, shape the meat mixture into balls of your preferred size and add them to the sauce.
6

When all the meatballs are in, let the mixture boil and season with chicken bouillon powder.

That’s it—enjoy!
