    I am using this recipe today, but I will be replacing the bread with oatmeal. It adds fiber to your diet and the oatmeal "plumps" up for tenderness. - 5/14/11

    You make yours the same way I do mine. For italian meatballs, I add garlic/onion/parsley/italian seasonings and then freeze. Good to triple recipe and make different batches. 1) for stroganoff 2) spaghetti 3) meatball soup. GREAT RECIPE! - 4/24/08
