I'll start to share these every week. Typing these will have dual purpose - a good blog post and typing them up so they could be printed on 5x7 note cards to have them feel more organized.
Spaghetti and meatballs does not have a lot of hands on time but it does take a while to cook. They are a great freezer food.

- 2 eggs
- 1 cup bread crumbs
- 2 Tbsp Italian seasonings
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper

- Put on baking sheet with space between them and cook them at 350 for about 20 minutes. Until they are browned but not completely firm.
