A recipe to share

Uh, so I admit that I failed at my own recipe sharing idea. Having that many recipes to share turned out to be hard!! Especially recipes that I like and actually have measurements for...

That being said, I do have one I dug out of my box and made for dinner the other day.

Italian Meatballs

1/4 cup Italian dressing

1 pound 90 percent lean ground beef.

1 egg, lightly beaten.

3/4 cup Italian bread crumbs.

1/4 cup fat-free milk.

3 tablespoons finely chopped onion.

1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic.

1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves.

1 teaspoon salt.

1/2 teaspoon pepper.

Shredded Parmesan cheese (optional)

In a large bowl, combine ground beef, egg, Italian bread crumbs, milk, onion, garlic, thyme, salt and pepper; mix lightly but thoroughly.

Shape mixture into 20 meatballs, about 1-1/2 inches in diameter.

Arrange on broiler pan that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Drizzle half of dressing on meatballs.

Broil 3-4 inches from heat until meatballs are cooked through (160 degrees), about 10 minutes, turning once and brushing with remaining dressing.

I got this recipe out of the Syracuse newspaper a few years ago. And when I say "a few," you all know that it's longer than that but I'm so not old enough to say how long ago it really was.

And speaking of denying my age, I got into my beast of a car the other day (which I really love, by the way) and looked behind me at all the carseats. I totally felt like there was no way I was old enough to have a vehicle full of car seats. Do you know what I mean?
