Used ground beef for these meatballs, nice flavours, thanks for posting. =)

I omitted all the ingredients before the ground meat because I was already putting these in my spaghetti sauce, and I used ground turkey. I still thought the meatballs were great. The recipe was easy, and baking was a nice cooking method -- simple and better for the low fat turkey. Not sure if I'll "die for them" but liked them plenty. ;-)
