Hearty Meatballs

Submitted by Vseward Chef-V

"These meatballs are real easy to make & super moist. I like to serve them with a side of steamed rice and broccoli. I usually double up on the ingredients to make more. They're always requested in my home."

Delicious meatballs! I added a bit of brown sugar and a bit of yellow mustard to the ketchup and mixed it before spreading over the meatballs. Thank you!!

We really enjoyed this tasty treat V. These big, tender meatballs were outstanding. I used buttermilk ranch salad dressing, herb stuffing and old cheddar cheese. The meatballs had a wonderful flavour. I served them on broad egg noodles. I followed your cooking directions and the clean up was a breeze. My dh was in heaven, he said it was like eating mini meatloafs only better. Thanks so much for sharing a new family favourite.

We had these for supper last night and they were very good. I went through the recipe too quickly and didn't notice that the ketchup was to be spread on top...I mixed it in. I'll try it the right way next time.
