<br>Hungry Girl Edible Idol: Meatballs
<br>
<br>Popular in Italy, a huge hit in Sweden... No, we're not talking about some Europop sensation. This email is devoted to a beloved food item that takes many forms, all of them spherical. Today's Edible Idol? Meatballs!
<br>
<br> 
<br>

<br>Classics & Covers
<br>
<br>Spaghetti & Meatballs: Maybe the most iconic of meatball dishes. The problem is that a single serving can have nearly 900 calories and over 30 grams of fat -- boo. But this HG swap has a mere 327 calories and 6g fat, thanks to spaghetti squash and lean beef. 
<br>
<br>Swedish Meatballs: When you want gravy-smothered comfort food, Swedish meatballs are mighty appealing. Less appealing? The stats -- a 6-meatball serving with gravy has nearly 30 grams of fat! We slashed that down to just 6.5g in our decadent creation. 
<br>
<br>Cocktail Meatballs: Everyone thinks they have some secret recipe when they coat frozen meatballs with chili sauce and grape jelly. The only secret is the crazy amount of sugar in that sauce. Our slow-cooker take on fruity meatballs is a slimmed-down sensation. 
<br>
<br>Meatball Sandwich Shocker! 
<br>Don't be sucked in by the occasional $5 Footlong deal when it comes to a Subway Meatball Marinara sub -- sure, the price is low, but it'll cost you 960 calories and 36g fat! (The six-inch version has a hefty 480 calories and 18g fat.) Instead, DIY with a light hot dog bun, your favorite low-fat marinara sauce, some grated Parmesan cheese, and one of the premade-meatball options below...

<br>Meatball Recipe Roundup
<br>
<br>Pizza Meatballs and Buffalo Wing Meatballs with Ranch Dip - Sometimes we like to make meatballs that taste like other foods we love... Can you blame us?
