1/4 cup breadcrumbs

1 egg

2 tbsp milk

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp onion powder

Salt & pepper to taste

How to Make It :

Form & Cook the Meatballs:

Mix beef, egg, breadcrumbs, milk, and seasoning. Roll into balls and bake at 400°F for 20 minutes, or pan-fry until browned. These bring that savory, juicy bite and easy meal prep win.

Smother with Gravy:

Heat meatballs in brown gravy just before serving. That rich saucy finish ties it all together like a comfort food hug.

Make the Mash:

Boil potatoes until soft, then mash with butter and milk. Season to taste. It’s the perfect creamy base for that gravy-drizzled goodness.

Steam the Veggies:

Steam carrots and peas until tender, then toss with butter, salt, and pepper. This gives you a fresh veggie pop and balance to the plate.

Plate & Pour:

Scoop mash onto plate, surround with meatballs and veggies. Drizzle everything with gravy for that diner-style dinner goal.
