Sweet-and-Sour Meatballs

These are very flavorful and easy to make.  This recipe is small and easily feeds our family of 5 with some leftover.  You may need to double if making it for a larger family.

1 pound ground beef
1 tsp. salt
1/2 of one small onion, finely chopped
1/2 c. soft bread crumbs
1/4 c. milk
1 recipe Sauce for Meatballs (see below)

Combine all ingredients, except sauce,in a large bowl.  Form into balls about the size of a tablespoon to slightly larger.  Place on a foil-lined baking sheet and cook at 400 degrees for 15 minutes (longer if your meatballs are larger, check the middle of one to see if it is done).   Pour sauce over meatballs and serve.

Sauce For Meatballs

1 c. ketchup
