These meatballs were easy to do. I used a leftover of challah bread. I used lean ground beef, a white onion. There was something missing in the meatballs. Maybe some spices. The taste of the sauce is great. Thanks KLBoyle. Made for Please Review My Recipe.

Made for a get together with friends. Was very easy and I didn't have to fuss over them while I made everything else. These had a good flavor and will make again.

I've made these several times now and they are always a hit. The flavor is mild but really delicious, making these perfect for any sauce. I use them now in all my meatball recipes, from appetizers to entrees. Thanks KL for a true family keeper.
