Horseradish Meatballs

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 30 min. Bake: 35 min. YIELD: 3 dozen.
"These spicy meatballs with their thick savory sauce are a popular party food," notes Joyce Benninger of Owen Sound, Ontario. "I also like to serve them with rice and a salad for a hearty meal."

Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1-1/2 pounds lean ground beef (90% lean)

  • 1 garlic clove, minced
