• When meatballs are brown, transfer to a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
• When all meatballs are browned, place the sheet in the oven and cook for 10- 12 minutes, or until the balls are cooked through.
• Place balls on a cooling rack covered with paper towels to drain excess grease.
• At this point, I cool, freeze, and reheat later. I like to serve with tzatziki sauce and Greek salad, or use as a lunchbox filler. Feel free to sauce however you wish.
