These balls were a bit too crumbly for my taste. I think I'll try using a different type of breadcrumb next time.

I found the flavor of these balls to be a bit bland. I think I'll add more herbs and spices next time.

These balls were a little too dry for my taste. I think I'll add more olive oil next time.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted sunflower seeds for the pine nuts. They were still delicious!
