Meatballs recipe
Ingredients:
2 lbs. ground meat of your choice; turkey, veal, pork, chicken, buffalo, beef, etc.
2 tablespoons of either or a combination of: dried oregano, dried basil, dried thyme
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. ground black pepper
1 cup grated Parmesan or Romano cheese
2 cups bread crumbs
2 eggs
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix with your hands. Mix well but don't overmix or you will end up with dense meatballs. If the mixture does not stick together, add a little more tomato sauce a tablespoon at a time.
2. Form the meat mixture into balls about 1 to 2 inches in diameter. Don't pack them too tight.
3. Place the meatballs on a baking sheet and bake for 20 to 25 minutes.
4. Serve the meatballs over pasta and sauce.
