Old Style Sunday Meatballs

Submitted by Diamond Joe

"Another old time favorite. I don't measure so these are approximate. Adjust to taste. The only things I measure are the cheese and breadcrumbs. Try with my marinara sauce."

I made these with all beef no pork. They were very simple & easy to make. I love the idea of baking them in the oven. Made for PAC Fall 09

Oh, my, how do I even describe how good these were?? I hadn't even put them in the oven, and they were filling my kitchen with their savory smell. My kids were going crazy waiting for dinner! I served them with your scrumptious marinara sauce and they were fabulous! These were easy and wonderful, thanks so much!

These meatballs were delicious Joe! My family and I really enjoyed them. This was the first time I baked meatballs and I sure picked the right recipe, I will absolutely be making these again. The measurements are perfect in my opinion, I would not change anything. Thanks for posting!
