"This was good. I minced the bell pepper and doubled it. I also minced 3 green onions and added it to the meat mixture. The meat was a little wet and difficult when I was forming the "legs" so I add..." See moreed some breadcrumbs to the mix. Worked perfectly. Teenage boys, 3yr old, and 1yr old all loved it. I only had ground veal, no pork. Was very good."
