Spaghetti and Meatballs

We are having spaghetti and meatballs for dinner tonight.  I am making the meatballs right now.  Preheat the oven to 400 and mix the following together (all measurements are approximate):

1 lb ground beef
1/4c whole wheat bread crumbs
1 egg
2T olive oil
3T parmesan cheese
1tsp steak seasoning (I think this gives a richer flavor than just salt and pepper)
1tsp italian seasoning
2T milk (enough to make the right consistency)

I use the Pampered Chef med scoop to scoop them out, then I roll them into balls.  I bake on my Pampered Chef large bar pan for 20 minutes at 400.  The rest is pretty easy - I boil 1/2 lb whole wheat pasta and mix with 1 jar spaghetti sauce.  My favorite sauce is Classico because it doesn't have any high fructose corn syrup in it.  We are moving early next year and I am going to plant tomato plants, so hopefully I will be able to make my own sauce!
