The meatballs in sauce without eggs are digestible and light.
I prepared my meatballs with mixed ground meat of beef and pork [ask for lean] flavored with whole wheat breadcrumbs and parmesan, without eggs and cooked them in simple tomato sauce.
Alternatively, you can use ground chicken breast or turkey breast.
Delicious, they bring joy to both adults and children.

With your hands, form balls and place them on the plate or tray.

In a hot pan, brown a sprinkle of garlic powder [optional].
Add the sauce* and heat it to a boil.
