Sometimes a really tough week just screams for comfort food to really make everything alright, it kinds of smoothes out the bumps and corners to make things easier to deal with. What are your comfort food that you head to when times get a bit stressful? Oh well, these little meatballs are far from gourmet, but they are tasty little bites from some church basement lady cookbook I picked up a while back-they always have the best recipes don't they? I served these with a nice mashed potato and gravy, but you serve them with what you wish.
Traditional Meatballs
2lbs ground beef-I used 1 lb pork and 1lb ground beef
1 cup finely ground saltine crumbs
½ cup finely (minced or grated) onion
2 eggs
1.5 tsp. Salt
1/3 aprox. cup of milk
Mix thoroughly beef, crumbs, onion, eggs, salt, seasonings and milk in a large bowl by hand.
Shape into balls (about 25 depending on size)
Do not shape too tightly-will toughen up
Bake on foil lined baking sheet at 350° for 30-35 minutes, depending on size
