Pork and veal meatballs are a savory blend of ground pork and veal seasoned with herbs, spices, breadcrumbs, and often eggs for binding. With roots in Italian cuisine, these tender, flavorful morsels are traditionally served in rich tomato sauces alongside pasta, polenta, or fresh bread. Pork adds juiciness, while veal lends a delicate texture, creating a balanced dish. Nutritionally, they provide a good source of protein and essential vitamins like B12 and iron; however, they can be high in fat and sodium, depending on preparation methods. Baking over frying can reduce unhealthy fats, and using whole-grain breadcrumbs boosts fiber content. Though undeniably indulgent, pork and veal meatballs can be part of a balanced diet when enjoyed in moderation alongside nutrient-rich sides.
