Asparagus and Ricotta Meatballs without Eggs

Asparagus and Ricotta Meatballs without Eggs

This time I chose to use my beloved asparagus to make small oven-baked meatballs without eggs. I added ricotta, flour, Parmesan, and a spice mix including turmeric. I recommend you try them because they turned out to be delicious meatballs worth trying. A very simple recipe that we can prepare any day of the week and that pairs with almost everything.
