Simple Spaghetti & Meatballs

Hello again friends! I am going to offer a simple and quick spaghetti and meatballs dish that I made last weekend. It is really quick and easy to make so if you are really busy and have some hunger people waiting this definitely won't take long. People make think you slaved all day over a hot stove but you will know the truth.

Spaghetti & Meatballs

1/2 lb lean ground beef
1/2 lb ground turkey
Salt & pepper for seasoning
2 tbsp olive oil
4 cloves of garlic
1/3 c of parsley
1/4 c shredded Parmesan cheese
1/2 c of bread crumbs
1 egg
Spaghetti noodles
1 jar of pasta sauce



Pour water into pot according to amount set by the box. Add 1 tsp. of salt to the water while boiling. Boil until al dente according to box directions. Drain when done and set aside.


Meanwhile, pour jar of sauce in saucepan and set it on low. Let it simmer while you prepare your meatball. Makes sure to stir the sauce occasionally so that it won't burn.

In a skillet, add 1 tbsp. of Olive Oil and saute the chopped garlic cloves until just brown. This will go into the large bowl of meat.

Now in a large bowl, put your ground meats into the bowl along with a gently whisked egg, salt and pepper, bread crumbs, shredded Parmesan cheese, sauted garlic, and parsley. Now lightly mix all the ingredients with your hands until all the ingredients are combined. Don't over mix.


Form 1" balls with the meat. They should look like this:


Put 1 tbsp. of Olive Oil in the skillet again and place meatballs inside with enough room to cook comfortably. Don't overcrowd. You should cook the meatballs for about 1 to 1 1/2 where each side is brown and the meatball is cooked fully through.


Once the meatballs are fully cooked place them on a baking sheet that are covered with paper towels.


Once complete, place noodles on a plate, then meatballs, and top with sauce. Then ENJOY!
