Hey, Fleece! Make your meatbulbs with an ice cream scoop, put them
around the perimeter of a pie plate or other round dish, cover with
waxed paper (to contain splatters) and nuke. Is browning really
important? Not to me, since they're always swimming in some kind of
sauce anyway.

(I make a cocktail-size meat-a-ball and nuke for maybe a minute or so
for 10 or so. Can't remember if I turn them over and give them a little
more juice for 20 seconds or so. Guess I'll have to make some. , , ,

I'll make a mess of those bad boys and freeze them. Then they're ready
for me when I'm ready for them.
