Both at home and during school lunches, I grew up eating buckwheat with meatballs. Honestly, as a child I didn’t like it, but as I grew older, I started loving this combo more and more.

Are buckwheat and kasha the same thing?
And do you use whole or cracked buckwheat?
This recipe looks yummy.
Thanks!
Hey Rachel, kasha is a general term for many different grains in Easter Europe. A lot of people do call buckwheat kasha. I do use whole buckwheat.
Is there something I can replace the egg with? These sound delicious but my daughter has an egg allergy.
You can skip the eggs altogether. It helps them to stay firmly together but they will be ok without the eggs.
These are really yummy, but I would like to say that they were way too salty. I could have gotten away with about half the salt and pepper. Otherwise, great recipe.
Wow, I do like things more on the salty side. Thanks for sharing feedback.
Made these and they were absolutely delicious!! Definitely a keeper. Thank you!
Nice:) I read your comment while riding in a train and smiled big. People are probably wondering why 😉 lol
So do you fry them and then bake them as well? Or just bake them in the oven?
Fry them to create a crust and after that bake them. It adds a lot more flavor.
Can you use 2 pounds of ground chicken instead of the two ground meats?
Yes, that will work great!
