Make-Ahead Meatballs
"These were good basic meatballs added to veggies and noodles and another time added to spaghetti sauce. Adapted from Crusine At Home. The original recipe used 2 strips bacon which I skipped. I also used ground bison -- adding 1 T oil instead of ground beef."

A really simple and speedy meatball recipe. I followed it to the letter, and although I thought two eggs was a little much for the mixture, I went with it.<br/>The mix was a little on the wet side, but the meatballs cooked up beautifully, and were deliciously moist and tender. <br/>I threw some into some homemade tomato sauce and served it to the children with spaghetti ( it was virtually inhaled!) and a few meatballs found it into the freezer ( I say only a few, as more than a few found their way into my mouth!!).<br/>Now I can have dinner on the table in a jiff, on those nights when time just isn't on my side.<br/>Thanks ellie_...a keeper without doubt.<br/>Made for PRMR.

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
