Meatballs that melt in your mouth

[POORBOY]

1 1/2 lbs lean beef (or a mixture of beef, pork and veal)
1 large egg, slightly beaten
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated (can use more)
1/2 cup breadcrumbs (can use more)
1 tablespoon fresh minced garlic (or use 1 teaspoon garlic powder or to taste)
1-2 teaspoon salt (or to taste, I use 2 teaspoons seasoned salt as I prefer it better than white salt)
1 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
1/4 cup milk (use low-fat or full-fat)
1/2-1 teaspoon dried oregano (optional, or to taste)
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley or 1-2 teaspoon dried parsley

1. Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl.
2. Shape into small meatballs (at this point you can place on a sheet and freeze to use later, or cover with plastic wrap refrigerate up to 24 hours before using.
3. You can just drop the meatballs into simmering pasta sauce and cook them in the sauce instead of baking them or frying them first and then adding them, this produces a very soft textured meatball that just melts in your mouth, or you can bake or fry them firstly if desired.

Made these as directed last nite.
1 Jar Ragu
1 Can Hunts Garlic Spaghetti sauce
1 Can Diced Italian Tomato's
Dash or two of Garlic and Onion and Italian Powder/herb.

Cooked Meatballs in sauce for a good hour.
DO NOT STIR TILL MEATBALLS ARE MOSTLY COOKED OR THEY WILL FALL APART.

Not Bad!

Once, a long time ago when I had a housecat and my husband and I were still youngsters, we went to bed without putting the leftovers away. The meatballs float, and were sitting in the leftover sauce, half submerged. While we were asleep, the wiley housecat pushed the screen cover off the pot of meatballs and ate each one down to the sauce line! Guess he liked the meatballs but not the sauce! LOL
