Want to hear a semi-bad Italian joke?
Why are a lot of Italian men named Tony?
When they got onto the boat to America, they had To NY (TONY) stamped on their foreheads.
Yep, I know that was a bad one and that I chuckled.
Meatballs
1 lb-ish ground beef
1 egg
1/4 c. parmasean cheese
1/4 c. bread crumbs
1 t. garlic powder
1/2 t. pepper
any Italian herbs
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
Again, I buy a package of ground beef and then portion and freeze it. So I had this much...?
In a mixing bowl, combine everything! Here are some Italian herbs that I googled because at 10am, I can't think for myself. Oregano, basil, parsley, sage are good to throw on in.
Once everything is well mixed, either by hand or spoon, start to form your balls. I made smaller, bite-sized ones. Just note, the bigger you make them, the longer they'll need in the oven.
Bake you meatballs for about 20 minutes. I cut one in half to see if they were done, as in no pink inside.
I sometimes put a wire cooling rack into the pan so as to not have the meat cooking in the fat. Works well for bacon too.
ReplyDeleteYou could use foil: heat reflection and easy peasy cleanup!. Whatevah! We enjoy them with a little bar b que sauce.
