• 1/2 cup pecorino cheese (or Parmesan)
• salt
• pepper
• 1 garlic clove, minced

1. Preheat oven to 400u0b0F, setting rack to upper third part of oven.
2. In a large bowl, using your hands, gently mix together first 11 ingredients.
3. Shape into lacrosse-ball size balls (that would be somewhere between golf and tennis) and place a few inches from each other on a foil-lined baking sheet.
4. In a small bowl, mix one spoonful of your pizza sauce with olive oil. Brush this mixture on top of each meatball. Bake for 20 - 25 minutes.
