Spaghetti with Melt-in-Your-Mouth Meatballs

OK, so, we try to eat healthy around here; we try to monitor our red meat intake and up the veggies. But honestly, HONESTLY, sometimes you just gotta have some spaghetti and meatballs. Mm-mmm. I came up with this recipe because I didn't have an egg. Necessity truly is the mother of invention. Let me know what you think!

1 1/2 lbs. lean ground beef
1 clove garlic, minced
2 Tbsp. onion, minced
2-3 Tbsp. mayonaisse
2 Tbsp. unsweetened Almond milk
salt and pepper
1 t. dried parsley, oregano, or your choice of herbs

Mix all ingredients together (this will be wetter than you're used to). Form into meatballs, and brown in olive oil over medium heat. Once browned on all sides, add your favorite tomato sauce, and simmer over low heat (if medium is 6, simmer around 2) until meatballs are cooked through (probably about 7-10 minutes). Serve with a sprinkle of parmesan (or alternative) over rice pasta.
