Best Ever (Easy) Baked Meatballs
These are really the best ever meatballs. I double or triple the recipe, cooking all the meatballs and freeze the leftovers. When I need meatballs, they are ready to go.
Dovetailing tip: Use 3-4 meatballs per serving, topped with the Swedish Meatball Sauce for this meal. You will use 3-4 per serving for the Meal 5 meal, Hawaiian Meatballs.
