MAKE-AHEAD MEATBALLS
My husband and I have company often. Keeping a supply of these frozen meatballs on hand means I can easily prepare a quick, satisfying meal. I start with a versatile meatball mix that makes about 12 dozen meatballs, then freeze them in batches for future use. -Ruth Andrewson, Leavenworth, Washington

MAKE-AHEAD FREEZER MEATBALLS
A wonderful all-purpose meatball to use in a variety of recipes! Easy to make, and with ingredients usually on hand. The yield is based on 1-1/2" meatballs, but you can make them smaller. I get about forty-eight 1" meatballs out of this same recipe.

ALL PURPOSE FREEZER MEATBALLS
Having frozen dry meatballs is handier than pockets in a shirt. From subs to spaghetti/with they are another one of those things that make cooking well for one possible. This is a conglomeration of a number of recipes that seems to work.

Steps:
- I mix the Panko ginger allspice salt and egg in a small bowl.
- Ginger, allspice, and Molasses MAY and likely SHOULD be increased Run it all, with the beef, through the FINE die on your food grinder.
- If you do not have a grinder, purchase the beef fine grind, at least twice through the grinder.
- And chop the onion fine in your food processor.
- I'm looking here for a very dense end product.
- Mix well by hand.
- Form into no-larger-than-pingpong ball size.
- Roll lightly in that excess Panko or bread crumbs I forgot to tell you to put in a plate.
- Place on a grill rack, Hopefully fine grate enough so they don't fall through.
- Oven at 400 (preheat).
- Bake about 20 min OR until that instant thermometer reads 145+.
- Let them cool completely and put what you're not going to use now in a freezer bag.
- That extra roll in Panko keeps them loose in the bag.
- For use?
- Put the balls and some (jarred) pasta sauce, gravy, whatever you fancy in the microwave to heat.
- Place in/on bun, spaghetti, hash browned or mashed potatoes, rice, or whatever the spirit moves you to.
- It's a handy meal-in-a-hurry.
- Enjoy and let me know any other uses you can find.

- PREHEAT OVEN to 500F. Line 2 pans (with 1 inch sides) with tin foil and spray with oil. I use one large and one smaller pan to fit side by side in my oven, but use whatever you have.
- PREPARE INGREDIENTS: Onion and parsley can be chopped with knife. Bread can be torn into small pieces by hand. Alternatively, use processor to first finely dice onion, then coarsely process bread, then finely mince parsley.
- SAUTE ONIONS AND GARLIC: Heat oil on medium high. Add onions and saute for 5-7 minutes until soft and translucent (not brown). Add garlic and saute another minute. Allow to cool while you continue.
- MAKE MEAT MIXTURE: In large bowl, add seasonings/bindings for meat (bread, milk, parsley, eggs, salt and Parmesan). Mix to combine well. Mixture will be mushy. Add ground meats, onion and garlic. Using clean hands, mix all ingredients together GENTLY. Don't overwork the meat. (I spread fingers on one hand, form a cup and use a twisting motion to mix). Wet hands (to avoid sticking) and lightly form balls about 1 1/2-2 inches diameter (or any size you like). I make about 60 balls. Lay on prepared pans 1/2 inch apart.
