- Shape the meat mixture into about 32, 1 1/2 inch, balls (about 1/4 cup meat per baland placing them in the prepared pans as you go.
- Bake the meatballs for 16-18 minutes, or until completely cooked. No pink meat for us.
- Remove from the oven and, if using immediately, add the meatballs into your recipe. Otherwise allow them to cool completely and follow freezing instructions.
Notes
To freeze: loosely pack the meatballs in zip-locking freezer bags. When freezing, make sure to lay the bags flat so the meatballs freeze individually without sticking/clumping together. They can be stored frozen for up to 3 months. To use, allow them to thaw in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight before hand.
