    Use less italian seasoning...way too much. Try beef broth as well, it adds flavour! - 12/14/15

    I will definately be making these again. I used Gluten Free bread crumbs and the meatballs were very crumbly. I used less salt and the parm cheese. Really tasty! - 9/15/12

    It would have been more beneficial if the recipe said 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs instead of .5 Cups . So wish me luck. - 8/8/11

    Thanks for the feedback, I updated the recipe to say "1/2" cup instead. Hope it worked out for you!

    Easy and yummy! (Note: I used parmesan cheese instead of the yeast, since I didn't have any yeast on hand). - 1/21/11
