Meatballs are such a pain in the butt to cook on a stove top. It is so much easier to bake them in the oven. You don't have to worry about ruining the meatballs when it comes time to flip them, or having grease splatter at you. Trust me, I've ruined lots of meatballs in my life trying to flip them over in a pan. I'm making them this way from now on.

It's fun making food for Holidays and try to come up with what type of food you could use for blood, and eye, brains, etc. The eyes are black olives and the blood is marinara sauce. You could put some mozzarella in the middle of the eyeball or an onion. Whatever you want. These would be really fun for a Halloween Party.

How to Make Bloody Eyeball Meatballs 

  1. Preheat oven to 400ºF. Spray a  large cookie sheet with cooking spray.
  2. Spray a small saucepan with cooking spray, and cook the onions until they are soft and tender. Let them cool. 
  3. In a medium-sized bowl, mix together onion, bread crumbs, garlic, egg, cheese, salt, pepper, and parsley in a large mixing bowl.
  4. Add in ground beef and mix gently until combined. Do not overwork. Form into 1-inch balls using a cookie scoop or your hands, and place on prepared cookie sheet.
  5. Top each meatball with a black olive before placing them in the oven. 
  6. Bake in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until meatballs are browned and cooked through. 
  7. Spread prepared marinara on a thin white plate and place the meatballs on top. 
  8. Serving size: 1 meatball.
