JALAPENO MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Make the dressing for dipping: Stir together all ingredients listed for the dressing. Refrigerate while making meatballs so that flavors have time to combine.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Make the meatballs: Add all the meatball ingredients to a large bowl and combine well.
• Take meat mixture and roll into balls. I scoop the meat mixture into a 1/4 cup measuring cup (use a smaller or larger one depending on the size you want for your meatballs), then I shake the meat mixture out of the measuring cup and shape into a ball. It usually shakes out of the cup pretty much in a ball shape so it doesn't take much to make it into a ball. Place 1- 2 inches apart in pan. Bake 14 - 15 minutes.
