Ingredients

For Meatballs

• 1½ lb lean ground beef

• ½ cup breadcrumbs, I used Panko

• 1 egg

• ¼ cup ketchup

• ¼ cup coarse grain mustard

• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

• 1 tsp seasoned salt

• ½ tsp pepper

• 1 tsp onion powder

• 2 tbsp olive oil (for frying)

For Gravy

• 2 tbsp butter

• 1 large onion, chopped

• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

• 1 cup beef broth or chicken broth

• 2 tbsp cornstarch

• ½ tsp seasoning salt

• 1 tbsp ketchup

• parsley for garnish

For Mashed Potatoes

• 5 large potatoes, peeled and chopped into 1 inch cubes

• 4 tbsp (1/2 stick) unsalted butter

• ¼ to ½ cup skim milk

• ¼ cup light cream cheese

• salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

• Add all the meatball ingredients (excluding the olive oil) to a large bowl and mix well, use your hands. Shape into 1 inch meatballs. You should get about 40 meatballs.

• Add the olive oil to a large skillet and heat over medium to high heat. Add meatballs and cook. If you're using a large skillet all meatballs should fit in one batch otherwise, you might have to fry them in a couple batches. Cook the meatballs on all sides, add more oil if needed. Remove meatballs from skillet and set aside.

• To the same skillet add butter and melt. Add onion and cook until onion is soft and translucent. In a bowl add the cornstarch and beef broth and whisk. Add broth and remaining gravy ingredients to skillet, and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes, sauce should thicken. If the sauce is too thick add a bit more beef broth. Taste for seasoning and adjust as necessary.

• When the gravy is done add the meatballs back to the skillet and toss them around so they're covered in the gravy. Garnish with parsley.

For Mashed Potatoes

• Peel the potatoes and cut them in 1 inch cubes. Boil them on medium heat until potatoes are tender, for about 20 minutes.

• Drain potatoes and in a medium bowl, add the potatoes, milk, butter, cream cheese and salt and pepper. Using a potato masher mash the potatoes until desired consistency. You may also use a hand mixer if you wish. Add additional milk as necessary.

• Serve meatballs over mashed potatoes.
