I've had that recipe for ages, and can't really remember where I found it. This is our family's favorite way to eat meatballs, because it's so easy! If you want to cut down the prep time, simply use store purchased frozen meatballs. The best "flavor" to go with this recipe would be home-style...Italian has too many spices to go well with the sauce.
Preheat oven to 350*F
Ingredients:
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/3 c. milk
1/4 c. seasoned bread crumbs (again, Italian is not the way to go for this recipe)
1 Tbsp dried minced onion
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 pounds ground beef
2 cans/jars (14 3/4 oz each) beef gravy
1/2 c. packed brown sugar
2 Tbsp apple cider or red wine vinegar
3/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1 pkg (12 oz) medium egg noodles
In a bowl combine first five ingredients. Crumble beef over mixture & mix well. Shape into 1 1/2" balls. Place 1 inch apart in greased 15x10x1 baking pans. Bake, uncovered, 20 min. If using frozen meatballs, par-bake them ahead.
With a slotted spoon transfer meatballs to a greased 2 1/2 quart baking dish. Combine gravy, brown sugar, vinegar, ginger & cloves; pour over meatballs and stir to coat. Cover and bake 30 minutes or until meat is no longer pink.
Meanwhile, prepare noodles according to package directions; drain. Serve with meatballs. yield: aprx 8 servings (40 meatballs).
This is great with a romaine salad alongside and something fruity for dessert. :)
