Tinklee's Spaghetti and Italian Meatballs step by step

- add the spices, bread crumbs, eggs, milk and shredded parmesan cheese, mix gently as you mix it all together.
- spray or grease a pan (I used a 9x13) form into balls staying the same size, I made ones 1-1/2" and it made 35, And bake for about 50-70mins (this really depends on the size you make your meatballs).
- when meatballs are done remove from pan and place in sauce, for best results let meatballs cook for 30mins, then start your noodles, follow package directions.
- serve mixed together or separate, enjoy.
Or place them into hot stock for an Italian Meatball soup. Freeze on a single layer in a dish or pan.
