- 1.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- 2.
- In a large bowl, combine the egg, bread crumbs, cheese, milk, pepper and onion.

- I found that when making meatballs or meatloaf, your hands are the best tools to mix the meat mixturethis way you avoid over mixing.
- 3.
- Shape into your preferred size of meatballs using your hands or an ice cream scoop.
- I used a 2-inch ice cream scoop and I got 16 regular-sized meatballs.
- You could easily using a mini scoop to make mini meatballs.
- 4.
- Arrange meatballs in a shallow baking pan.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until the meatballs are cooked through (160 degrees F).
- 5.
- Serve with your favorite sauce and spaghetti.
- Tip: If you want to freeze the extra meatballls, follow the directions above.
- Once the meatballs are cooked and cooled, place them on a pan evenly spaced apart (so they dont freeze together) and place in the freezer for a few hours until they are completely frozen.
- Store the frozen meatballs in a bag or container, label the bag, and save for another time you want meatballs.
- To reheat: Thaw out the meatballs and reheat by placing them in a 350 degrees F oven until heated through or simmer them in spaghetti sauce on the stove.
