1 1/2 Pounds Lean ground beef or turkey

1/3 Cup Celery leaves -- finely minced
2 Tablespoons Green pepper -- minced
1 Teaspoon Salt
1 Tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 Garlic clove -- minced
3 Cups Bread crumbs
2 Eggs -- beaten

Use meatball/bagel die. Put ground beef, salt, pepper, spices, celery,
onion, green epper and about one cup of bread crumbs in mixing bin. Mix
lightly. Add eggs and extrude. Ad bread crumbs by the tablespoonful
through the
top grates as necessary to keep the mixture extruding and from bunching up
around the blades. Extrude in 1 1/2" pieces and roll each into a ball.

a pan with 2 tb. olive oil until browned, or put on broiler rack and bake
