Melt In Your Mouth Italian Meatballs Recipes

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, crumble ground beef & italian sausage.
• 2. In small bowl mix together, garlic pwd., onion pwd., pepper, tomato & basil, italian seasoning.
• 3. In another small bowl mix together ketchup, worcestershire sauce, olive oil, & eggs.
• 4. Add dry ingredients including crackers to meat, mix slightly, add wet ingredients, mix by hand until well incorporated.
• 5. Roll up meatballs & place on baker's rack. I used a teaspoon as a guide for these. Bake (small) meatballs on 325* for 30 minutes.
• 6. I then place meatballs in my Meatless Spagetti Sauce & simmer for 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl.
• Shape into small meatballs (at this point you can place on a jelly-roll/baking sheet and freeze to use later, or cover with plastic wrap refrigerate up to 24 hours before using).
• Drop the meatballs into simmering pasta sauce, do not stir for at least 20 minutes or you will risk breaking the meatballs.
• Continue cooking in the simmering sauce for another 20 minutes (depending on how fast your sauce is simmering 40 minutes total should fully cook the meatballs).
• After the 40 minutes cooking time continue cooking your sauce with the meatballs in for as long as desired.
• **note** you may also bake the meatballs at 350 degrees F for 25 minutes or until cooked through.

Steps:

• Put ground beef in large bowl,
• Add the egg and the bread crumbs.
• Sprinkle garlic powder, oregano, salt/pepper, there is no measuring for that, just sprinkle.
• Mix meat mixture with clean hands.
• Add about 1/4 cup water. The meat mixture will be soft.
• In a large cooking pot, put sauce, start heating up the sauce, have it set on medium.
• Now take about 2 tablespoons of meat and gently roll in ball, gently put each meatball in the sauce, (yes it will be raw) do not fry the meat balls before the sauce).
• Do this until all the meatballs are in the sauce, cook for 1- 3 hours max. The longer the better. Delish!
