French Onion Meatballs

Are you looking for a new dinner to wow your family? This is it. Also a fan of french onion soup? Then you must ty this dinner based on the classic soup. I now make this every week because we love it so much. This is a wonderful choice if you are having company, too. I used a meatloaf mix for the meatballs. You can find this in your local food store or from your butcher. It is just a fancy name for a combination of meats including beef, pork and veal and makes the meatballs extra tender and delicious. Of course, you can feel free to use all ground beef. You probably could use ground chicken also but I have not tried that out yet. For the crostini, you can use your favorite Italian or French bread. Don’t skimp on the parsley….it makes the dinner look beautiful. You may also love Meatballs with Spinach Ricotta Cheese or Oven Baked Chicken Meatballs
