| 2 slices | light bread, toasted |
| 1/2 cup | finely chopped onion |
| 1 lb. | raw extra-lean ground beef, (4% fat or less) |
| 1/2 cup | fat-free liquid egg substitute, (like Egg Beaters Original) |
| 1/4 cup | fat-free milk |
| 1/4 tsp. | salt |
| 1/4 tsp. | black pepper |
| 1/4 tsp. | garlic powder |
| 1/8 tsp. | nutmeg |
| One 4-serving packet | beef or brown gravy mix, (like the kind by McCormick) |
| 1/4 cup | light sour cream |
Directions:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spray a large baking sheet with nonstick spray.
Tear toasted bread into pieces, and place in a blender or food processor. Pulse into crumbs. Transfer to a large bowl.
Spray a large pot with nonstick spray, and bring to medium heat. Cook and stir onion until slightly softened, about 3 minutes.
Add cooked onion to the large bowl. Add all remaining ingredients except gravy mix and sour cream. Mix thoroughly with your hands. Form 24 evenly sized meatballs and place on the baking sheet, evenly spaced. (The mixture will be moist; don't worry if your meatballs aren't perfectly shaped.)
Bake until almost cooked through, about 8 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine gravy mix with 1 cup water, and whisk to dissolve.
If needed, clean the large pot. Place gravy mixture in the pot, and bring to medium heat. Cook and stir until thickened, about 3 minutes.
Add sour cream to the pot, and whisk until uniform. Add meatballs, and gently stir to coat. Simmer until meatballs are hot and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Enjoy!
