Today, the Christopher Columbus Italian Society of San Antonio hosted one of their infamous spaghetti and meatball dinners. Henry and I went to the last event in benefit of the fallen soldiers families of San Antonio. Today, however, due to the inclement weather left from Hurricane Ike, I decided to make meatballs at home instead.I found a recipe online which worked with great success. The process was simple, actually. 1 pound of ground meat, 1/2 cup of italian bread crumbs, 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese, 1 egg and spices. I mixed all the ingredients together, then formed 1 1/2 - 2 inch balls. I carefully arranged the balls on a baking sheet coated with non-stick spray. They went into the broiler on high for 10 minutes, flipped them over and broiled for another 5 minutes. Then I dropped them into a simmering pot of Emeril's Kicked Up Tomato pasta sauce and left them there for about 20 minutes.
I doubled the recipe so the extras are going into the freezer. They turned out wonderful.
6Hi Josh!
ReplyDeleteYour recipe/pic has made me hungry :).
Mom says Hi and thank you for the b-day wish.
Houston traffic can be insane at times. You can always count on a traffic accident.
It has taken me close to an hour to travel approx. 20 miles. Crazy!!
Bad news...we were hoping to visit San Anton in a few days BUT due to Ike, we decided to postpone our trip :(.
We are currently without electricity and it may be a few more days before we are powered up once again.
