Bosnian Meatballs Recipe---A family favorite

Heat your oven to 400 degrees.

Mix one pound of beef, about one-quarter of a cup of minced onion, pepper and salt to taste, about one-half of a cup of bread crumbs, one-quarter cup of milk, and one or two eggs in a large mixing bowl. A pinch of Vegeta works well if you can find it.

Knead the mix and knead it again. You want to mix things up really well.

Make small meatballs from the mix. A tablespoon is a good measurement. Don't go for large meatballs. You want about one dozen meatballs from this recipe.

Put them in a baking dish. Bake for about 20 minutes.

Remove from the stove and drain the fat. Get the fat and any liquid out of the dish.

Turn the oven down to 325 degrees.

Beat 3 eggs in a bowl, add nutmeg to taste and about one-and-one-half cups of yogurt. Greek yogurt works okay. You want a stiff natural yogurt for this.

Pour that over the meatballs in the baking dish.

Return the baking dish to the stove. Watch it carefully. You want it to harden or bake until you can stick a knife in and bring it out clean.

Bake for awhile---until you can stick a knife in and pull it out clean.

Serve in the baking dish. This goes well with rice on the side and pita bread.
