Meatballs In Beef Gravy
For the best flavor i recommended to brown the meatballs in the skillet, the browned bits in the skillet will add flavor to the gravy, i have listed the yield for 4 please be aware that it is for four smaller size portions if you like lots of gravy then you may want to double the recipe ---prep time does not include preparing the meatballs --- serve with mashed potatoes
