Meatballs are my way of 'cheating' with having meat with our spaghetti. Personally I would eat spaghetti with just noodles and sauce. But since my family demands meat it unfortunately means I cannot get away with a meatless spaghetti. This also usually means when I am done eating spaghetti there is a pile of meat on the bottom of the plate. I don't pick it out of my food really, but I don't work to hard to eat it either.
Meatballs are a nice fix for this issue. I don't have to put them on my plate unless i just one or two and my family can eat them to their hearts desire.
This recipe is a nice and easy one yet still hearty and tasty. If you are a busy mom or dad and don't have time to cook every night, these are great if you make them ahead of time, let them cool and then freeze them.
