Easy Meatballs

I found this recipe on one of the very first food blogs I started following a few years ago, Krista's Kitchen. At the time I thought there is no way I could ever do a food blog, but look at me know, started one and actually keeping up with it. The best part of this meal, other than the delicious taste, is that it makes enough so you can freeze enough meatballs for another meal!

Starts off easy enough! Mix all the ingredients up and shape into a ball, a heaping tablespoon. Mine might actually be even a little bigger, anything will work! Line them all up on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil and sprayed with cooking spray. Bake for 16-18 minutes at 400 degrees.

I took some help tonight and used a jar of spaghetti sauce, Doug noticed right away, but what he doesn't know and of course, will now..is that I added about 2 oz. of cream cheese to the sauce. Another trick I learned from Krista! It makes the sauce take on a creamy texture that is delicious. It was worth it, even if not everyone in the house agreed. Again, Doug thinks that jar spaghetti sauce makes him sick. Well sometimes I like a shortcut!

And after they cool, I will put these in the freezer and pull out in a few weeks, probably grab a jar of sauce and make some meatball subs, either way, they are nice to have handy for an upcoming meal!
