Bavarian Meatballs image

GINGERSNAPS and mushrooms give these tender meatballs a special old-world flavor. The recipe was handed down from my husband's family several years ago. I love to cook and found that this was an easy recipe to double and share with friends. The meatballs can also be frozen for a convenient meal at a later time. -Gusty Crum, Dover, Ohio

These meatballs are a great freezer meal. I make a big batch and then freeze them in individual portions. Then I can just pop them in the oven or microwave when I'm short on time.

These Bavarian Meatballs are a great way to use up leftover bread. They're also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. I always add a few chopped carrots and celery to the sauce.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my meatballs turned out dry and tasteless. I followed the recipe exactly, but something must have gone wrong.

These Bavarian Meatballs were a disappointment. The meatballs were tough and the sauce was bland. I won't be making this recipe again.

These meatballs were a bit dry, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend adding more moisture to the meatballs next time.
