My husband makes these easy meatballs with simple ingredients like eggs, panko bread crumbs, garlic powder, and fresh basil; they come out flavorful and delicious every time! Kids love them, too! If desired, add the cooked meatballs to your favorite sauce until submerged (this brings out the moistness).
Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh basil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 0.5 cups panko bread crumbs
Instructions
-
1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
-
2
Combine eggs, Italian seasoning, basil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder in a large bowl. Add ground beef and panko bread crumbs; mix thoroughly.
-
3
Shape beef mixture into about 40 meatballs (1 1/2-inch in size, a little smaller than golf balls) using a teaspoon. Place on ungreased, rimmed baking sheets.

Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the centers, 10 to 15 minutes total, turning halfway through. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the centers should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Waffles II
Very easy! You will never use a mix for waffles again!
Spicy Tuna Sushi Roll
A great tasting spicy sushi roll, for those who like extra pizzazz. You can use cooked or raw tuna to your preference to achieve great flavors. Great for a filling Japanese meal. Tastes great with a wasabi soy dip.
Strawberry (Jam!) Cream Cheese Frosting
This foolproof frosting keeps it simple. While very sweet, it's just the thing to balance the natural flavor of a homestyle scratch cake recipe. I used it the first time to lighten up a cake made with a heavy whole grain white flour. Uh-mazing!
