Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Shape the mixture into little 1-inch balls. This recipe should make approximately four dozen meatballs. Place as many balls as will fit (approximately 15 to 20) into a two-quart casserole dish. If you have two dishes, use them both. If not, cook the meatballs in two separate batches. Pour 1/2 cup of water in the dish (or in each dish, if you are using two) and cover the dish(es). When the oven is preheated, place the dish(es) in the oven and bake for 45 minutes.

Remove cooked meatballs from the oven and cool for later use. Or immediately add to spaghetti sauce and serve over pasta. You could also serve immediately as an appetizer (with toothpicks).
