- Place the meatballs in the oven and cook for 20-25 minutes.
- The meatballs are now ready! Top on pasta with marinara sauce, in a submarine sandwich or freeze for later use. To use after freezing, heat directly from the freezer in the oven at 400F for 20 minutes.
SUBSTITUTIONS – Since we do not always have success when going outdoors or not everyone practices hunting, fishing or picking. here are a few ideas to substitute the harvested ingredients:
- The ground venison can be replaced with grocery bought ground beef.
- The ground venison can be replaced with any ground red wild game meat. Ex: moose, elk, venison, duck, goose, to name a few.
