Gwyneth's Sweet & Sour Meatballs

The calendar page has turned to October. At this time of year I find myself reaching for some comfort food as the days and evenings turn cooler.  This is a healthier version of a popular meal. Flax is a powerhouse of nutrients and benefits, but invisible in these meatballs.  (For those of us who have to hide healthy things) ;)  Read about it HERE.  I like to buy mine in seed form and store in my fridge freezer.  I grind a few cups at a time, in my coffee grinder and then return the flax meal to the freezer for storage.  Enjoy this quick and easy recipe!
