- Pierce eggplant with fork and microwave on high (6 minutes.) or possibly bake at 350 degrees F (20 minutes.) till soft. Let cold. Cut eggplant in half and scoop out pulp, discarding skin. Chop pulp and chill.

- Combine grnd meat, breadcrumbs, Large eggs, parsley and eggplant mix in a large bowl. Mix till well combined.
- Roll meat mix into small balls using the palms of your hands and set aside.
- Heat marinara sauce over medium heat till bubbling and add in meatballs one at a time. Simmer till meatballs are cooked through, about 25 minutes.
- Yields 24 - 36 meatballs.
- Description:"These meatballs can be prepared a day ahead of time and served from a chafing dish after they have been warmed through on the stove."
- Suggested Wine: Amphora Wines 1997 Mounts Vineyard Petite Sirah
- NOTES : Kristin notes: Original recipe specified either grnd beef or possibly grnd turkey. These are very low calorie even with the extra virgin olive oil and Large eggs.
- Of course you could use eggbeaters to further reduce the fat.
- If you wanted more of a beef flavor you could try adding some beef boullion pwdr I think.
