    Depends on how big they are. I make mine in varying sizes depending on the use.

    I always weigh mine and the smaller ones, like 1.5 inch are about 1 oz. I use 93/7 lean ground beef. I actually put my recipe in the system and divide it accordingly.

    A 1.5 oz meatball made with 93/7 beef, egg whites and bread crumbs is 72 calories.
    Fried I would add 20 cals or so.

    Hope this helped
