Alright so I love to make spaghetti and more times than not I use spicy Italian sausage as the accompaniment. Well this time around I decided to opt for some homemade meatballs. The meatballs I came up with were absolutely delicious and my friends who are not red meat lovers, loved them too.
Recipe:
Makes approximately 30 meatballs
Ingredients:
2 pounds extra lean ground beef
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 tbsp garlic salt
1 tbsp Italian seasoning
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried basil
1 tsp dried parsley
2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1/3 cup milk
1/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated
3/4 cup bread crumbs
Directions:
- preheat the oven to 400 degrees F
- Place all the ingredients, minus the beef, in a mixing bowl. Mix everything together until the mix looks evenly blended. Then add the ground beef and mix everything together until beef is evenly coated. Then form 1 1/2 inch meatballs and place onto a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Serve meatballs with your favorite spaghetti recipe and enjoy!
