Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef or turkey
• 1 egg
• 2 teaspoons dried parsley
• 2 teaspoons dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• 1 small yellow onion diced small
• ¼ cup breadcrumbs

Instructions

• Heat your oven to 400 degrees F.
• Prepare a baking sheet with foil or cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, combine the ground meat, egg, spices, onion, and breadcrumbs. Use your hands or a silicone spatula to mix.
• Roll the meatball mixture into 2-inch balls and place 1 inch apart on your prepared baking sheet.
• Bake the meatballs for 18-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked all the way through.

Notes

To make rolling the meatballs easier, wet your hands.
If using a dark-coated baking sheet, flip the meatballs halfway through cooking to ensure that they don’t blacken on the bottoms.
