MEATBALLS 
1 cup unseasoned bread crumbs

2 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

After stirring the ingredients, add 2 pounds of ground chuck. Shape into meatballs about 2 inches in diameter. Coat a shallow roasting pan with non-stick cooking spray. Space the meatballs in the pan so they don't touch. Cover bottom of pan with 1 cup low-sodium beef broth.

Bake at 450°F for 25 minutes or until they are cooked through. Can use with your favorite spaghetti sauce. Pan drippings may be used in the sauce.
