Meat Balls in Onion Soup

Submitted by Dienia B.

"These meatballs have oatmeal in them. They taste wonderful. It extends the meat with a healthy grain. I added the gravy mix to this because I use cheap French onion soup mix. If your French onion soup mix is beefy you don't need to add the gravy. You just want good flavor in your brown gravy.this is a little salty to me,so be aware but not to rudy who loves this"

Loved the recipe, delicious! The only thing I would change would either add is more oatmeal or less milk. However, my husband loved them, but would rather have breadcrumbs. Thank you for sharing the great recipe.
