Meatballs

1 1/2lb ground chuck
1 lb sweet Italian sausage
1/2 cup flavored bread crumbs
1/2 cup plain bread crumbs
3-4 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion, minced
2 eggs, beaten
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried basil

Mix it all together and form meatballs...I do ones a little bigger than golf balls. Place on baking sheets and bake at 350 F for about 35-40 minutes, rolling them around every 10-12 minutes.
Pretty simple...pretty garlicky, so if you are not a garlic fan (as you all know I am), reduce the amount! You can also use just flavored breadcrumbs instead of half plain, half flavored - I do that so I can use my own herbs.
If you like yours with cheese add about 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan to them before baking.
