EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Turkey or Chicken Meatballs: Substitute 1 pound lean ground turkey or chicken for the ground beef. (If using ground chicken, decrease milk to 2 tablespoons.) Bake until no longer pink in center and thermometer inserted in center reads 165°F.

For evenly-sized meatballs that will cook in the same amount of time, pat meat mixture into a 6x4-inch square. Cut into 24 squares. Roll each square into a ball.

Good! My 5 year old loved helping in the kitchen, and LOVED 'mixing' the meat and other stuff with his hands LOL. I overcooked them a little, and they were STILL good. Will definitely be making again.

These are really good. I have made these several times. I usually make double and freeze them for a super quick weeknight dinner. I just throw them in in the sauce pan on low to make sure they defrost all the way through and they are done before the speg. is cooked! I have also used this same recipe to make meatloaf. Super good, easy versatile recipe!
