  • MEATBALLS
  • 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
  • 1/2 cup chopped onions
  • 1/2 cup plain bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons NESTLÉ® CARNATION® Instant Nonfat Dry Milk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Directions

FOR MEATBALLS
PREHEAT oven to 350° F.

MIX all meatball ingredients lightly but thoroughly in medium bowl. Shape into 2-inch balls. Place in jelly-roll pan.

BAKE for 20 to 25 minutes or until no longer pink. Drain; reserve fat drippings. Keep meatballs warm.
