Lately Maya has been "asking" to use cutlery to eat (Katie on the other hand still prefers her fingers...sigh). Anyway, this morning she gave yogurt a try. Not exactly sure if it was a success, but Maya had fun at least.


Look at me she says;)
EASIEST "MEATBALLS" EVER
Katie was helping me make some meatballs this morning. I started with 1 lbs ground beef

Katie then cracked the egg, added 1/4c bread crumbs

Added some onion soup mix, and then told me she was all done, so I did the mixing.
Then instead of rolling balls out of the meat mixture, I just put in on a cookie sheet, cut with a knife (but didn't separate them).

Baked at 375F for about 15-20 min. Ta da!

I rinsed them to get rid of some of the fat and added them to my sweet & sour sauce. (They are also great for spagetti)
They are great for making ahead of time and freeze too.
question...i make my balls (hahaha) almost the same way, i make like a years supply at a time and freeze them....
ReplyDeletequestion...do you put the slab of meat on a flat sheet? have you tried putting the meat on a drip tray on top of a cookie sheet/pan then cut them up and cook them? i love that you cut them, instead of rolling them, it would save me much time but i don't want to cook them in the fat....would it work on a cookie/drip tray? have you tried that?
long enough question eh...hope i make sense
see how great a blog can be ;)
