Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Use your hands to gently mix until ingredients are well blended.
Using the palms of your hands, shape the mixture into 1-inch balls. Place them on a greased baking sheet 1 inch apart. Or you can use parchment paper. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 350° F. Bake the meatballs for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they are no longer pink in the center. Remove, and serve immediately. Makes 30 meatballs.
Notes
Serve these meatballs with a dipping sauce such as Tzatziki Sauce.Tips For Success
Hands are always the best tool for mixing meatballs or meatloaf. Using a large spoon will crush everything together, creating a tighter mix, which can cause the mix to be dry and too dense in texture.
If you don't want the present these as Spanish Tapas Meatballs, place the cooked meatballs on a bed of arugula that's been tossed with lemon juice and olive oil.
If the meatball mixture is too soft and won't hold a meatballs shape, add a sprinkle more of bread crumbs. If too dense add a teaspoon of milk. A good meatball texture should easily roll into a perfect little round ball.
