Pinterest Favorite: Homemade Meatballs - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 lbs fresh ground beef (grass-fed is always a good choice)
1/2 cup breadcrumbs (great use of any stale bread)
2 tablespoons grated romano cheese
2 whole eggs
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon virgin oil
1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, to taste
diced onion, to your liking (optional)
fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

Preparation

For this super simple recipe just mix all of the ingredients in large bowl, and roll into 3 oz size balls or less (depending on your preference that is.).
Spray your baking sheet with oil, and bake at 350 F for 40 minutes. If you are planning on serving them with Marinara Sauce, throw the meatballs in the pot to simmer for a while. Doing this will add a yummy, rich flavor to the sauce. Also, do not be afraid to leave them in there for a while too. Grandma used to leave everything to simmer all day before serving dinner. The result was a delicious smelling house as well as an infusion of meaty wonderfulness in the marinara sauce, and super delicious tender meatballs! Garnish your homemade meatballs with some more grated cheese and a little fresh parsley for color and enjoy.
