Hcg Chicken Meatballs & Sauce

Submitted by Jonesyx6

"Start the sauce the day before you intend on making the meatballs. This is a recipe that follows the guidelines for Phase 2 eating on the HcG diet. It takes a while, but it was VERY yummy! This recipe covers your vegetable, meat and bread (some versions of the HcG allow for an additional vegetable)"

 

• Ready In: 45mins
• Ingredients: 13
• Yields: cup
• Serves: 1

ingredients

• 3 ounces chicken breasts (slightly frozen)
• 1 tablespoon dried oregano
• 1 tablespoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon garlic salt (diet approved)
• 1⁄2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon pepper
• 1 breadstick, HcG approved, ground to a fine powder
• 1 cup grape tomatoes
• 1 tablespoon dried oregano
• 1 tablespoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1⁄2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt

directions

1. To make the sauce:

2. In a medium saucepan of water, boil the tomatoes until they either split or float.
3. Add them to a blender/food processor or use a hand blender (what I used).
4. When the tomatoes are liquified, add the oregano, basil, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper and salt.
5. Mix thoroughly.
6. Cover and let sit overnight. This will allow the flavors to meld more.

7. To make the meatballs:

8. Place sauce in a saucepan over medium heat.
9. Mince the chicken.
10. Grind the breadstick.
11. Add the chicken, ground breadstick, oregano, basil, garlic salt, onion powder and pepper into a bowl.
12. Mix well.
13. Form the chicken mixture into small, grape sized meatballs and drop into the warming sauce.
14. Cook in the sauce for 30 minutes.

This was very good!!! I might make the sauce for spaghetti for the whole family once off of my diet. The only thing I added was a little Frank's Red Hot to the mix. Delicious!
