with Real Italian Meatballs

If you don?t have an expendable bambino on hand, 
you can use a pound of ground pork instead. 
The secret to great meatballs, is to use very lean meat.

1 lb. ground flesh; human or pork
3 lb. ground beef
1 cup finely chopped onions
7 - 12 cloves garlic
1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
� cup milk, 2 eggs
Oregano
basil
salt
pepper
Italian seasoning, etc.
Tomato gravy (see index)
Fresh or at least freshly cooked spaghetti or other pasta

Mix the ground meats together in a large bowl, 
   then mix each of the other ingredients. 
Make balls about the size of a baby?s fist 
   (there should be one lying around for reference). 
Bake at 400�for about 25 minutes - 
   or you could fry them in olive oil.
Place the meatballs in the tomato gravy, and simmer for several hours. 
Serve on spaghetti. 
Accompany with green salad, garlic bread and red wine.
