Coat a 13x9x2-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place meatballs in the baking pan. Bake, uncovered, in a 350 degree F. oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until meatballs are done (165 degreees F). Drain off any juices.
3.
Meanwhile, coat an unheated large skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Add mushrooms and remaining onion. Cook until onion is tender. Stir together water, cornstarch, and bouillon granules. Stir cornstarch mixture into mushroom mixture. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Stir in meatballs and wine; heat through. Stir in parsley. Serve over hot cooked noodles. If desired, granish with carrot curls. Makes 5 servings.
