Italian Meatballs
Ingredients
# 1 1/2 lbs lean beef (or a mixture of beef, pork and veal, I mostly use a mixture of ground beef and pork)
# 1 large egg, slightly beaten
# 1/4 cup parmesan cheese (can use more)
# 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (can use more)
# 1-2 tablespoon fresh minced garlic (or use 1 teaspoon garlic powder or to taste)
# 1-2 teaspoon salt (or to taste, I use 2 teaspoons seasoned salt as I prefer it better than white salt)
# 1 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
# 1/3 cup milk (can use up to 1/2 cup milk)
# 1/2-1 teaspoon dried oregano (optional, or to taste)
# 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley or 1-2 teaspoon dried parsley
Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl.
Drop the meatballs into casserole dish and pour pasta sauce over (homemade or canned), do not stir for at least 20 minutes or you will risk breaking the meatballs. Cook at 350 degrees F 40 minutes total should fully cook the meatballs. After the 40 minutes cooking time continue cooking your sauce with the meatballs in for as long as desired.
*NOTE* you may also bake the meatballs at 350 degrees F for 25 minutes or until cooked through.

ooo, ooo, ooo, thanks for those bun and balls recipes!!!
WE had leftovers tonight - baked ziti from last night. I am SO in need of an easy way to plan a REAL meal (like with veggies and/or some other side). Any suggestions???? I hate thinking about dinner so like to have it all planned out ahead of time. (It doesn't help that I can't read anything in the grocery store, so I just get what I've gotten before so I am sure of what it is . . . but it gets boring!)
