4 servings
- ½ lb ground beef (80/20)
- ½ lb ground pork
- ⅓ cup plain breadcrumbs
- ¼ cup whole milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ¼ cup finely grated parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tsp dried oregano
Ingredient noteHerbs and spices can carry nickel, so a low nickel diet limits them, but the small amount of oregano used to season this recipe is likely fine. If you prefer to always avoid oregano, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ¾ tsp kosher salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- olive oil spray
Instructions
- 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and milk. Let stand for 2 minutes until the breadcrumbs have absorbed the milk and formed a paste.

Add the ground beef, ground pork, egg, garlic, Parmesan, parsley, oregano, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix with your hands until just combined — stop as soon as no streaks of breadcrumb paste remain; do not overwork the meat.
