In my pescetarian phase, few years ago, i started cooking for myself, since my family love all kind of meat, and one of the first recipes that i've learned to master is Tuna meatballs. it's a traditional dish, and i've simplified it because i'm a very lazy person.
you can substitue Tuna with any other kind or ground meat, sardines..
