I like to grate the onion and garlic over a fine grater when mixing them into meatballs like this. It cuts down on my having to bite into a big chunk of onion and also gets their flavors infused throughout the entire mixture. I like to round this meal out with a simple kale salad. My favorite dressing for it is a creamy tahini-lemon blend that's super easy to make. In the jar of blender, combine 1/4 cup tahini, 1/4 cup water, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 2 grated cloves garlic and some salt and pepper. Blend to a smooth paste, adding a splash of water as needed to loosen the mixture.
