Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare a baking sheet by lining with parchment paper. 2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients. Mix well, do not over mix or you will have tough meatballs. 3. Using a 2 tablespoon scoop, portion out meat and place on baking sheet. After all meatballs have been scooped onto tray, roll into balls and place back onto the baking sheet. 4. Bake for 20-22 minutes, until the meatballs are browned and cooked through. 5. Remove and transfer to sauce or serve immediately. DONNA'S NOTES 1. If you lightly coat your hands with olive oil before rolling the meatballs, they will form better and crack less. 2. You can substitute dried herbs and spices for a quicker recipe. 3. 1 tablespoon dried Italian seasoning for the fresh herbs 4. 1 teaspoon garlic powder for the fresh garlic 5. 1 teaspoon onion powder for the fresh onion. Enjoy. _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
