Kittencal's Famous Parmesan Meatballs

Created by KittenCal on June 1, 2011

1 pound ground lean beef
1/2 pound ground pork
2 large eggs (slightly beaten, or 3 egg whites)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/3 cup breadcrumbs, dry (if you don't have any dry breadcrumbs, soak 3 slices sandwich bread in the milk until soft)
6 garlic cloves, finely chopped (garlic lovers can use more)

1/3 cup milk (1% or 2%, do not use fat-free milk)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano (or dry Italian seasoning, optional but good to add in for flavor
2 tablespoons dried parsley
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (can use more or less)

Step 1: In a bowl mix all ingredients adding in a little more bread crumbs if needed to hold together; cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or 24 hours.
Step 2: Shape into about 1 1/2 to 2-inch balls or whatever size you like.
Step 3: Add to simmering sauce or bake at 350 degrees F for about 25 minutes (cooking time will vary depending on the size of the meatballs -- if you are dropping into simmering sauce do not stir for at least 20 minutes or you may run the risk of the meatballs falling apart.
Step 4: Note; for spicy meatballs add in some crushed chili flakes.
