Ingredients

2 eggs, beaten
2 cups fresh breadcrumbs, soaked in
1 cup milk
1 cup shallot, minced
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup snipped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 lb meatloaf mix (ground pork, veal, beef)
1 lb ground beef or 1 lb ground turkey

Directions

1

In a small frying pan, place 1-2 T. oil in pan. Saute on a medium heat the shallots and garlic until lightly brown and transparent.
2

In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs, soft breadcrumbs, parsley, salt and pepper, thyme and parmesan cheese and milk together. Let stand so breadcrumbs can absorb milk. Add sauteed shallots and garlic and then add meat mixture. Mix, but don't overmix.
3

Form into meatballs and place on a jelly roll pan lined with foil (I use Release Foil, so I don't have to spray with a non-stick spray - if you don't have Release Foil, spray your foil with non-stick spray).
4

Place meatballs in 350°F oven for approximately 20-25 minutes. Let cool on wire rack and either place in freezer container or use as needed.

Yield - 48 meatballs.
