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

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.
-

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).

I personally prefer cheesecake with a different crust than a graham cracker crust. Through trial and error, I created this blueberry shortbread cheesecake recipe. It takes a lot of time, but it is definitely worth it. Don't think about the calories!

Mom's Rhubarb Custard Torte
My mother made this often while I was growing up. She's been gone for 13 years, but I still make this at least once a year to rave reviews. No one has ever had anything like this but anyone who likes rhubarb loves it. It makes a lot, but when my husband takes this to work, I only get the empty pan back! Prep time is based on having to cut your rhubarb. If already cut, reduce to 30 minutes.
