Homemade Italian Meatballs

Is anyone else obsessed with "90 Day Fiancee" or just me? 

I watch every season basically and I am such a sucker for reality shows. I have a DVR so I always record the Friday night and Sunday night episodes and I just finished the Tell All. So obsessed.

Anyways....back to the actual reason why I'm writing, and it's for another recipe of course! This recipe was delicious. I made these Homemade Italian Meatballs and then had a side of spaghetti pasta noodles and spaghetti sauce. Jace used Alfredo Sauce instead of spaghetti sauce. I didn't didn't make this as a spaghetti, I did them all separate for the reason of being able to add the type of sauce wanted/needed. Serve with garlic bread. The original recipe can be found HERE from NW Kidney. This recipe has a secret/different ingredient in it which would be Old Fashioned Oats. This would be instead of a breadcrumbs. You will be surprised on how great they tasted. Jace saw the oats and asked if they were almonds. I told him no and I told him I wouldn't tell him what it was until he was done eating. Let's just say he ate everything and didn't mind that it was healthier Oats :) 

Ingredients:
1.5 pounds ground beef
2 eggs
1/2 cup Old Fashioned Oats
3 tbsp Parmesan cheese
1/2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried Oregano
1 tbsp onion powder
1/2 tsp pepper
Spaghetti noodles or Fetuccini noodles
Spaghetti sauce or Alfredo sauce

Ingredients for Homemade Italian Meatballs

Roll into 1" balls and place on a PAM sprayed baking pan. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake for 25 minutes, check after 15 minutes to see if the meatballs are cooked through. I had to extend the time about 10 more minutes. I also flipped them halfway.
