2 pounds ground beef
½ pound ground pork
2 cups bread crumbs
4 eggs
1 cup milk
1 cup fresh parsley
2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
½ cup grated parmesan or any dry Italian cheese
4 garlic cloves minced or pressed
1 onion minced
Mix all the ingredients together. Shape into balls. We do 3-4T most of the time. Saute in pan with a little olive oil to brown. Transfer to foil lined baking sheet (for easy cleanup).
Bake 350 for 30 minutes (depends on size you make so adjust accordingly)
After they bake and we eat, I freeze the rest. When freezing place on sheet pan separated. After frozen, then transfer to freezer container. They reheat quickly making a weeknight meal quick and less messy!!!
These paired with the marinara sauce has unlimited options. You could serve over zoodles for lower carb. You can make smaller and make meatball subs. Just add to your favorite bun/bread and melt a little mozzarella cheese in broiler on them. You could eat the classic over pasta noodles. You can serve as appetizers with marinara dipping sauce.
We usually make a side salad with caesar dressing.
