Tyler made meatballs.
4lbs ground beef
3 eggs
3/4 c bread crumbs (or oatmeal)
1/2c Parmesan cheese
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 tbs parsley
1 tsp garlic

Mix, roll into balls, bake on wire rack on cookie sheet at 350F for 30-45 minutes or until done. (The recipe said one hour but ours were done in a half hour)
**These were rather bland so we are going to substitute a package of spaghetti seasoning in place of the listed seasonings next time.

Okay, now I've got to get supper ready. You made me hungry.
Kathy I love how your kids are learning all that!
Thanks Karen. I just want to make sure they can all clean a house, cook and do laundry. But of course I don't want to overburden them so they cook once a month, rotate on unloading laundry (I always wash) and have one household job and one supper job to do.
Kathy, thanks for sharin those recipes. I am always looking for different thing that are also easy. Can't wait to try them :)
