Method

  1. Wash hands with soap and water.
  2. Preheat oven to 425 °F.
  3. Mix all ingredients, shape into balls (about 24 meatballs).
  4. Arrange on baking sheets that have been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
  5. Bake at 425 °F for 12-15 minutes.
  6. It is best to use a food safety thermometer to check for doneness.

  8. If meatballs are being saved for future use, chill rapidly; package in amounts needed per meal and freeze immediately.
