OMGosh Meatballs

Preheat oven to 350 F. Place a roasting rack inside of a large jellyroll pan. Spritz the rack with oil or baking spray.

In a large bowl, beat eggs until frothy. Stir in cheese, garlic, basil, parsley, salt and pepper. Set aside.

Put the milk into a relatively flat bowl. Soak each slice of bread in the milk, squeeze out the excess milk, then remove and discard the crust. Break the bread into pieces over the egg-cheese mixture. Discard remaining milk.

Work the ground beef and sausage into the egg-cheese-bread mixture until well blended. Use your hands to gently form meatballs (whatever size you prefer). Place them on the prepared pan and spritz them with olive oil. This will give the ‘fried’ flavor without all of the calories or mess.

Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Serve with Italian Gravy (see recipe in my TastyKitchen recipe box) or freeze the meatballs in meal-size batches—or both.
