Very good meatballs...moist and soft, with an easy-to-make, tasty sauce I will certainly use for other dishes. DS and DH both give a hearty two-thumbs-up! These meatballs are, as you can tell by reading the recipe, lacking in seasoning...but that does not detract from the dish (although I confess I likely will add some herbs next time--and I certainly will make these again). There is a wee problem with the time listed for the recipe -- the browning of the meatballs should be included in the cooking time (btw, I browned them in the oven for 20 minutes on a cookie sheet sprayed with Pam and had no sticking problem). Served with veggies and egg noodles, this made for a terrific dinner!

These meatballs are terrific served with potato salad. The hot and cold combination goes really well together. My friend and family like them very much.

It was a good dish, but like it did lack some flavour for my personal taste. Moist meatballs though!

This was not a bad recipe, I just don't think the taste suited me. My husband liked the meal. I felt like the recipe made a larger quantity of meatballs than we needed, so I gave the leftovers to my neighbors. They loved the meal as well. I guess it was just me who didn't like them!

I enjoyed this quick, tasty, and easy dish. It is economical too - a whole pan full of meatballs on 1 pound of beef is terrific. One tip: be sure to grate your vegetables on a fine setting if you want your veggies to "disappear" into the meatballs. I rated this 4 stars because it didn't go over as well with my family as I expected. I will make this dish again and serve it over buttered noodles. I also might add some additional spices such as nutmeg, cloves, etc. to the sauce.
