How To Make marvelous meatballs

  • 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)

    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!

    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)
