I was short on time so I used store-bought matzo meal. The matzo balls still turned out great and my family enjoyed them.

I got creative with this recipe and added some chopped carrots and celery to the matzo ball mixture. It was a great way to add some extra flavor and nutrition.

I made a few modifications to make this recipe healthier. I used whole wheat matzo meal and low-sodium chicken broth. The matzo balls were still delicious and my family loved them.

I've made matzo balls before, but this recipe really takes them to the next level. The addition of schmaltz and onions really adds a lot of flavor.
