Preparation

1. Preheat the Oven

2. Mix Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

3. Form Meatballs

Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter, and place them on a lined baking sheet.

4. Bake Meatballs

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and browned.

While the meatballs are baking, prepare your tomato sauce or heat up a store-bought sauce in a saucepan.

Once the meatballs are done, transfer them to the sauce and let them simmer for a few minutes before serving.
