Wendy's Notes:

Moist, Juicy, Tender yet almost Creamy bites of Yumminess.

So many things can be done with this meatball, anyway you choose, it's sure to be a hit! (ideas listed in instructions)

and BONUS...they freeze well for up to 3 months!

Enjoy! :o)

 

Directions

1
Preheat oven to 400. Line a 11x17 pan (approx) with foil, set aside.

In a small bowl, add bread and pour milk over. Allow to stand 5 minutes.

(Bread is formulated for 3 average slices of white bread, if using something different you may need more or less)
2
Squeeze excess milk from bread, crumble into a large bowl, discarding milk, add in remaining ingredients. Mix well. Your hands will work the best. :o)
Shape into 1 1/2" balls. (a large cookie scoop works wonderfully) Place onto prepared pan, leave at least 1/2" between each meatball. Bake for 20 minutes. Enjoy!
3
As I said in the note above...These can be used so many ways.
- with your favorite marina sauce on a garlic toasted hoagie roll with provolone or mozzarella
- with your favorite spaghetti/marina sauce over pasta OR on a small bun with mozzarella as a slider.
- with a home made sweet and sour sauce over rice or egg noodles
- with a rich beef gravy over mashed potatoes
- or alone with caramelized onion and mushrooms over top (MY Favorite)

This really looks good, Wendy. Similar to my recipe, but with enough tweaks thrown in to make me want to try it! I'm always looking for ways to improve my cooking.
