I would make these changes to make it a healthier recipe. I would use 1 1/4 cup of Whole Wheat bread crumbs OR whole wheat crackers and maybe change the walnut ingredients to flax seed, ground or chopped almonds or ... or... or. Recipe sounds great and I will definitely be trying it. I usually use white meat ground turkey in my meataballsa (meatballs).
