Very tasty indeed! I used 300 g of ground beef and 250 g of chorizo - I needed a bit more egg to hold everything together but I do think the eggs were exceptionally small. Used 1 tbls of Tabasco and the meatballs still weren't in any way hot (though very flavourful - definitely!) so I think I'll up the amount the next time even further. I used my 1" cookie scoop to form these into balls and got exactly 30. Great recipe that I will absolutely use again, thank you!

I live in the Midwest with my husband, cat and two dogs in the 1890's home we have restored. Our favorite spot is the front porch on long summer Sundays, sipping wine and nibbling my latest creation. When not at home, we're off traveling the world, sampling wine and food wherever we go!
<br>(although our list of want-to-go destinations still outnumbers the places we've been!) We love to entertain our friends and family and share good food, drink, and great conversation well into the night!
