1/2 lb. ground pork
1/4 cup dry breadcrumbs
1 1/2 TB. chopped fresh parsley
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. prepared mustard

vegetable cooking spray
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup Riesling or other slightly sweet white wine
1/2 cup nonfat sour cream
1/4 tsp. pepper
1. Combine the first 8 ingredients in a bowl; stir well. Shape mixture into 24 (1") meatballs.
2. Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; place over medium heat until hot. Add meatballs; cook 10 minutes until browned, stirring frequently. Remove from skillet; set aside.
3. Add garlic to skillet; saute 30 seconds. Add wine; bring to a boil over medium heat, and cook 1 minute. Return the meatballs to skillet; cover and cook 5 minutes or until done. Remove from heat.
