Another keeper
Spaghetti & meatballs
Serves 4 (freeze the left-over’s)
Forget the pre-cooked store bought balls, try these.
1) S&P
2) ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese + more for serving
3) 2 minced garlic cloves
4) 1 egg
5) 1 lb. ground beef (I combined beef & Italian sausage)
6) ¼ cup dried bread crumbs
7) 1 T. olive oil
8) 1 28 oz. can crushed tomatoes in puree (try processing onion & a pitch of basal with the sauce)
9) Spaghetti
Combine 1 thru 6 & form into approx. 16 balls.
Heat the oil & cook balls till browned, about 8 – 10 minutes. Add tomatoes, bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer & cook partially covered till cooked through, about 10 – 12 minutes. Serve with pasta sprinkled with parmesan & minced parsley.
Yum-yum
