Question Italian Meatballs

I misunderstood the original thread. I guess the plan was to gauge interest in food discussion rather than posting recipes. My bad.

Spicy Meatballs

prep about 20 min
cook time 20-25 min
makes about 48-54 meatballs (I normally freeze the ones I don't plan on cooking that day, and end up making pasta for a couple days)
also your going to get your hands dirty so wash up

Ingredients

1 lb of 80/20 ground beef
1 lb of hot Italian sausage
2 eggs
plain bread crumbs
parmesan cheese
pasta sauce
noodles

Directions


1. set oven to 400. put the beef and sausage in a large mixing bowl, throw in some parmesan cheese (not much, but not a lot), and crack in two eggs. (Also open your bread crumbs now before your hands get covered in meat.)

2. mix thoroughly, then pour in bread crumbs, and mix again.

3. get a cooking pan and roll the pile of meat into balls. (you can make them however big you want, I normally make mine about the size of a half-dollar diameter)

4. Freeze the ones you don't want to cook that day, and cook the amount you want to eat +1 (test meatball to make sure the sausage is cooked all the way through)

5. throw them in the oven for 20-25 min, put your water on med-high, and your sauce on low (covered, stirring every now and then) so they will be ready when the meatballs are done

6. pretend your Italian for a day and eat a ton of pasta
