Easy Baked Meatballs With Two Sauce Options image

What an easy recipe, and only 4 ingredients. This was on the cover of the newest issue of Kraft's "What's Cooking" magazine. I did add minced garlic and some Italian seasoning....just couldn't help myself :) I baked the meatballs on a rack to eliminate excess fat. Two sauce options were given as serving suggestions. I have listed them in the instructions so that they will not interfere with the nutritional values of the meatballs. These are terrific for freezing, making future meals even faster.

The meatballs were a bit bland. I think I would add more spices next time.

These meatballs were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add more bread crumbs next time.
