Combine the meatball ingredients and shape into 1 inch meatballs. Space apart evenly on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

In a sauce pan melt the butter for the sauce. Add the mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes until they start to brown. Add the flour and cook for a further 1 minute.
