Suzanne's Meatballs

These are so yummy, my kids love them. One of the fabulous recipes from a great friend. I also use this recipe for meatloaf (but add mushrooms, celery, and other herbs) or for hamburgers.

2 lbs ground beef
2 Tbs minced dry onion
1 cup oatmeal (or bread crumbs but I like it with oatmeal)
2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1 tsp worcestershire sauce (I omit this)
2 eggs
1/2 cup rice milk (you can use milk)
Mix all ingredients together. Shape into 1 inch balls. Place on jelly roll pan and bake at 400 for 12-14 minutes. Cool. Rinse under running water (when I'm hurrying I don't rinse)

We eat these with spaghetti (bertolli sauce only:) or with a white sauce on egg noodles, or you can make meatball subs on miniature french bread loaves.
