In a small bowl, combine breadcrumbs and milk. Place in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
¼ cup breadcrumbs, ¼ cup milk
Preheat the oven to 425 F. and line a 9 x 13 (or larger) baking dish with aluminum foil.
After the breadcrumbs and milk have sat for 15 minutes, remove from the refrigerator and combine with the remaining ingredients (except ¼ cup beef broth) in a large bowl. Mix well.
½ pound Italian sausage, ½ pound ground beef, ½ cup white onion, ¼ cup freshly chopped parsley, ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese, 1 garlic clove, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon Italian seasonings, ½ teaspoon ground black pepper, ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes, 1 large egg
Roll the meat mixture into golf ball-sized balls (about 1 ½ inches in diameter), and place in the lined baking dish.
Pour the beef broth around the meatballs, then cover the dish with aluminum foil.
¼ cup low-sodium beef broth
Place the meatballs in the oven to bake for 25 minutes.
Remove from the oven, and serve warm.
