Garden Fresh Meatballs

I had a hankering for a nice plate of spaghetti and meat balls and saw all the lovely oregano, basil and sage out in my garden. Here is what I put together.
Ingredients
- 3/4 lb 93/7 lean ground beef shopping list
- 1/2 cup yellow onions - Diced shopping list
- 3 slices Light Style Soft Wheat bread shopping list
- 1 egg shopping list
- 3 cloves garlic Clove shopping list
- 1 tbsp Fresh oregano shopping list
- 1 tbsp basil, Fresh shopping list
- 1 tbsp sage, Fresh shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 350 and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Grate the slices of bread into crumbs. Food processor makes quick work of this. I so this with the stale end of a loaf then put it in an air tight container in the refridgerator. Using my choice of bread I cut many calories and still get the job done.
- Mince the fresh herbs, onion and garlic. You don't want any big lumps or your meatballs won't hang together so well.
- Combine all the rest of the ingredients into a large mixing bowl. I use my well washed hands and try to remember where I put my wedding rings after.
- Using a table spoon, scoop a bit of the mixture and roll in your hands to form a ball and place it on the cooking sheet. Repeat until it is all gone.
- Bake for 30 - 40 minutes.
- Serving suggestions: In marinara over noodles, meatball subs as an appetizer.
