The Yummy Dinners Continue... :)

I wish that I would have taken a picture of our yummy dinner last night, we were so hungry so I did not even think about taking a picture! But for our wedding my mom's good friend Tammy gave us this Secret Recipes cookbook and it is so fun and the recipes we have tried are so good!

Last night we made Millie's Meatballs - SOOO good! :)
Here's the recipe:

Ingredients:
1 egg
1 envelope dry onion soup mix
1 tsp. garlic from a jar
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1 1/2 lb. lean ground beef
2/3 cup italian seasoned bread crumbs
3/4 cup evaporated milk

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 and spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
2. In large bowl, combine egg, soup mix, garlic, and pepper. With a fork, mix in ground beef and bread crumbs.
3. Stir in evaporated milk, mixture should not be too dry, but well moistened.
4. Roll into about 24 golf ball sized meatballs and put them in baking dish (not touching each other)
5. Cover with foil or glass lid and bake for 28-35 minutes.
6. And serve with a sweet and sour sauce or with spaghetti :)
7. ENJOY!

We had the meatballs with some spaghetti and it was so delicious. The meatballs were just perfect, juicy, flavorful, and oh so tastey! I highly recommend this recipe!

(Side note to Coco and Man-E....if you loved the meatlove...you'll love this!) :)

Sorry to go from yummy food to this...but on another note. My hubbie has been injured for a little over a week now! He sprained his ankle pretty bad when he was playing ward basketball. I feel so bad for him, he's having a hard time walking around still and his foot has been so swollen. And as you can tell he's got some colorful bruising going on! Poor guy. Please send him your love if you see him or talk to him! :)


Look out for some more yummy recipes coming soon! :)
