1 cup bread crumbs
1 teaspoonful garlic salt
2 teaspoonfuls onion powder
Freshly ground black pepper (approx. 1 teaspoon)
1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
32 ounce bottle of ketchup
32 ounce jar of grape jelly

Steps:

  • Preheat over to 350º. Mix all meatball ingredients well. Make meatballs the size you prefer and place on a cookie sheet to bake. Bake in preheated oven until slightly brown. (At the point you can cool on cookie sheet and then place cookie sheet with meatballs into freezer, and when meatballs are frozen-remove and place into freezer bags and use later). To make Magnificent Meatballs-either start with freshly baked turkey meatball or use your prepared and frozen meatballs. Place prepared turkey meatballs into a crock-pot and pour one 32 ounce bottle of ketchup and one 32 ounce jar of grape jelly over top of turkey meatballs.

  • Mix the ground beef gently. Over-mixing the ground beef can make the meatballs tough.

  • Brown the meatballs in a skillet before baking them. This will help to seal in the flavor and prevent the meatballs from becoming dry.
