These are a great appetizer served with horseradish sauce. I used grape tomatoes, seasoned bread crumbs, and Italian seasoning (instead of just oregano). In the future, I would up the amount of onion, or add a bit of onion powder. My meatballs didn't brown well in the oven for 25 minutes. Therefore, I tossed them with some browning sauce mixed with water and baked for an additional 10 minutes. We had a Sunday afternoon of snacks, instead of lunch and this fit the bill perfectly.
