Spicy Meatballs

These are perfect alone or with pasta and sauce, which is the most common way I serve them!  They would also work with BBQ sauce! 

Ingredients:

- 1 1/2 lbs. Ground Beef
- 1/2 Cup Italian Bread Crumbs
- 1/4 Cup Milk
- 1/2 of an Onion, diced finely
- 1 1/2 tablespoons Garlic
- 1/2 tsp. Oregano
- 1 tsp. Basil
- 1 tsp. Red Pepper Flakes
- 1/2 tsp. Cayenne Pepper
- Salt and Pepper to taste

Directions:

1.  Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.  Toss all of your ingredients into a large bowl.  Using your hands, incorporate all ingredients into your meat.  Don't over mix though!



2.  Still using your hands, roll the ground beef into golf ball sized balls and place on a sheet tray. 


3.  Place your meatballs into the oven and bake for approximately 20-25 minutes.  Test one to make sure it is completely done inside.

4.  Toss meatballs into sauce and stir to coat.  Serve with pasta.

Here's the final product....

Um...YUM!  Enjoy! :-)
