Judy's Breakfast Meatballs
Recipe taken from: Mealsforyou.com
Serves 16
2 lbs. breakfast sausage
1 lb. ground beef
3 eggs
2 Tbs. instant minced onion
1/2 lb. sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine all ingredients and pepper to taste in a bowl. Mix thoroughly. Roll into 1-1/2 inch balls or drop by spoonfuls onto cookie sheet. Bake 18-20 minutes. Makes 2-1/4 lbs. to 2-3/4 lbs. meatballs.
If you wish to freeze meatballs: Cool quickly in refrigerator to retain freshness. Place the amounts you will use at one time in freezer/oven-proof containers or on sheets of aluminum foil. Seal tightly. If using foil, wrap and fold edges to seal and place on a flat baking sheet (to preserve shape) and place in freezer until frozen. Then you can remove baking sheet and place package where you wish in the freezer. Freeze up to 6 months. To reheat: Preheat oven to 350°F. Place container of meatballs in oven and bake 30-40 minutes or until hot. Or microwave on high until hot. (USDA recommends reheating meats to 165°F to destroy any bacteria.)
