Recipe Repost: Taco Eyeballs

These are on my friends' menu tonight as "Broiled Cyclops Eyeballs" and are my offering for tonight's party.

1.5 lb ground beef (I used the kind with 27% fat)
1 envelope taco seasoning
1 egg
1/2 cup rolled oats or bread crumbs
sliced green or black olives

Preheat the oven to 450 F.
In a large bowl, lightly beat the egg.
Pour in the envelope of seasoning and the oats or bread crumbs. Whisk to combine.
Add the ground beef to the bowl and mix well.
Form 1" meatballs and place on a baking sheet that has been lightly sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
Lightly press an olive slice into each meatball.
Bake at 450 for 10-15 minutes.

Serve with salsa for dipping, or serve in a taco shell on a bed of lettuce. Garnish however you please. Happy Halloween!
