    I never was a big meatball fan unless it was a vegetarian meatball. But, since having Grumpy for a hubby and since he is such an avid hunter, we have all this venison in our freezer all the time! So, I have to come up with ways to use it! I have basically become a venison "fan" so to say. When I was a little girl I would never want to eat ground venison. I hated it. I prefered my mom's vegetarian meatballs over real meat of any kind-any day! Still do actually. Someday soon I will have to showcase her meatballs on my blog. I just realized I haven't done that yet! Anyway, last evening I made some venison meatballs. They looked great and smelled awesome - and you really couldn't taste that "wild game" taste. (or maybe I have just become used to it?) In any case, I enjoyed them and plan to take a couple to work today for lunch! I don't follow any specific recipe when making my meatballs. I basically throw together what I feel like and go from there. The recipe I made tonight follows.

    Baking in the oven

    HoneyB's Homemade Venison Meatballs

    1-½ lb ground venison (our vension is premixed with pork when taken to the butcher)
    1-½ teaspoon garlic powder
    1-½ teaspoon dried onion flakes
    ½ cup italian seasoned bread crumbs

    1 egg

    Ready for the sauce

    Mix all together until well blended (I do use my hands for this!). Using large pampered chef scoop, scoop meatballs and place on foil lined cookie sheet. This makes a decent sized meatball and makes the men happy! Place in oven at 350 and bake for approximately 25 minutes. Remove from oven and mix with your favorite spaghetti sauce (tonight I used sauce from a jar for convenience sake!). Simmer on the stovetop until meatballs are no longer pink. Enjoy over top of spaghetti....all covered with cheese.... 🙂

    Yum!!

    I also would like to Thank Jenn from the Leftover Queen for putting me on her Finest Foodies Friday list. Be sure to join the Foodie Blogroll if you haven't yet!! I was really pleased to see that I had been noticed!
