Servings: 24 meatballs Calories: 111kcal
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground chuck 85/15
- 1/2 lb ground pork (unseasoned) If you can only get a pound, save half in the freezer.
- 2 eggs whisked
- 4 slices of Italian bread 5 ounces
- 1 cup bread crumbs I used Italian seasoned
- 4 TBSP grated parmesan
- 1/2 tsp garlic salt
- 1 tsp salt
- pinch of black pepper
- 2 TBSPs chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375
- Soak the bread in cold water for about five minutes, ringing out the excess water and pulling the bread apart with your fingers.
- Combine the meat, eggs, and parsley in a large bowl. Add the bread. Then add the dry bread crumbs, parmesan, garlic salt, and salt.
- Using a cookie scoop scoop out the meatballs onto wax paper and then roll them into into consistent balls. Place them on a cookie cooling rack. Place that rack on a baking sheet. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until you can cut into a meatball in the middle of the rack and not see pink.
