      \n
    1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.Use aluminum foil to cover a cookie sheet that you will use to freeze the uncooked meatballs.<\/li>\n
    2. Mix the beaten egg and milk together in a large bowl. Then add the oatmeal, onion, Parmesan, parsley, garlic, Italian Seasoning, and Mrs Dash Steak Grilling Seasoning. Mix well.<\/li>\n
    3. Add the ground beef , mixing with your hands until evenly distributed. (Don\u2019t over mix)<\/li>\n
    4. Roll into 1 \u00bd inch meatballs and put on the cookie sheet. Freeze at least 10 minutes.<\/li>\n
    5. After the meatballs have frozen at least 10 minutes, Heat a large non-stick skillet to medium high. Add olive oil.<\/li>\n
    6. Pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees.<\/li>\n
    7. Remove meatballs from freezer, roll them in flour, and brown them on 2 sides. (You just want to brown them; don\u2019t cook them completely) Place the browned meatballs in a casserole dish large enough so all the meatballs fit on 1 layer without overlapping.<\/li>\n
    8. Cover the dish and bake 35 minutes or until meatballs are completely done, turning the meatballs over after the first 15 minutes.<\/li>\n
    9. Serve with pre-prepared tomato sauce.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
