Spaghetti and Meatballs

This is a typical conversation I have with Dave. Me: What would you like for dinner this week Dave: hmmm. Meatballs. He says Joes mom makes best ones. I've never made meatballs before so I went looking through foodgawker.com (I really do love that website. They even have an iPhone app now!) I knew I wanted to use a sausage and not ground beef. When I found the recipe I thought it would pretty easy to make. Next time I'll make 2 batches and freeze one. After the meatballs were done cooking I threw them in the sauce for awhile. I used Ragu for the sauce I think they make great spaghetti sauce. I only took one picture because I forgot. I keep doing that :/

Ingredients

1 egg – beaten
1/3 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup whole milk
1/4 cup Parmigiano Reggiano – grated (I almost used parmesan instead but )
1/4 cup onion – minced
1 clove garlic – minced
1- 19.76 ounce package sweet Italian Johnsonville sausages – casings removed

Instead of using Parmigiano Reggiano I almost used Parmesan instead but found the Parmigiano Reggiano at Walmart priced reasonably.

Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, combine the egg, bread crumbs, milk, Parmigiano Reggiano, onion and garlic. Mix to combine. Add sausage to the bread crumb mixture and mix well.

Line a cooking sheet with foil. Using a cookie scooper or your hand in my case, scoop out approx 24 meatballs onto cooking sheet. Bake for approximately 20 minutes or until meatballs are cooked through.
