MMMMM.....Microwave Meatballs!!

So today I had lab (ICK) but it was sort of fun. We extracted DNA from corn and other farmed products to test it for DNA. It was actually quite amazing, I mean I never thought I would be able to do something like extract DNA. Well I am sort of worn out today so I will get right to the recipe.

A Microwave Meatball??? whaaaaattt you say???? Yes, Microwave Meatballs... and they are quite tasty! I was planning on hating these since well meatballs should be simmered lovingly in a sauce, not nuked!!! But alas! I was wrong, they were/still are amazing.

Microwave Meatballs

1 lb ground turkey or ground beef
1/2 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs (I use whole wheat homemade crumbs)
1/4 cup water
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon garlic powder (or less)
1 egg ( I used egg beaters this time)
1 (28 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

Directions:
1. Mix ground meat, bread crumbs, water, basil, oregano, parsley, garlic powder, and egg.
2. Form mixture into about 15 meatballs.
3. Put meatballs in a microwave safe baking dish.
4. Cover with spaghetti sauce and parmesan cheese.
5. Cover dish with plastic wrap and microwave at 70% power for 12 minutes.
6. Uncover; add Mozzarella cheese. (I skipped the cheese this time)
7. Microwave at 70% power for 1 to 1-1/2 minutes or until the cheese is melted.

Today I changed it a bit and did not add the sauce and cheese when I nuked it since I was going to eat some later without sauce. They still turned out great when I added the sauce at the table.
