Healthy Meatballs

Kid Friendly Meatballs:

INGREDIENTS
1 lb 93% Lean Ground Beef or Turkey
1/3 Cup Old Fashioned Rolled or Quick Oats (or breadcrumbs)
1 Egg, beaten
1/4 Cup Whole Milk or Buttermilk
1/3 Cup Freshly Grated Parmesan (optional - omit if you have a picky kid)
2 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
1 tsp Garlic Powder
2 tsp Italian Seasoning (alternatively you can use Italian seasoned breadcrumbs and then omit this)
1 tsp salt
Olive Oil


Combine all the ingredients and then chill for an hour if possible - it makes it easier to roll into balls when chilled.  Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line a baking pan with aluminum foil coated with nonstick spray or use a silipat.  Roll into 20 or so 1.5" balls.  Brush the meatballs with olive oil.  Bake at 350 degrees for 13-15 minutes or until no longer pink (or reads 170 degrees on a meat thermometer), being careful not to overcook.
