Baked Weekend Meatballs
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 lb ground pork (breakfast or mild Italian sausage is preferred)
- 1 small onion, chopped fine
- 2 garlic cloves, minced (more to taste)
- 1 egg
- 34 cup romano cheese, shredded
- 12 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
- 14 teaspoon thyme
- 14 teaspoon rosemary
- 14 teaspoon oregano
- 14 teaspoon basil
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- Generously spray cookie sheet with non-stick spray.
- I prefer using a sprayed broiling rack so the grease separates from the meatballs.
- Mix all ingredients; should be 'moist' but not 'sloppy' -- add a bit more breadcrumb if necessary.
- Form into meatballs, about inch and a half across or so
- Plan ahead!
- Slightly flatten a dozen meatballs so they don't roll away when you make sandwiches --
- Place on sprayed sheet or rack close together without touching.
- Bake 15-20 minutes or until done through.
- Serve on top of pasta with favorite sauce; they are *awesome* on long rolls with sauce and mozzarella or provolone.
- * Note: Can substitute some/all Romano cheese for shredded Parmesan cheese.
- * Number of meatballs and cooking length is dependent on how big you make them.
