Italian Meatball Recipe
| This traditional Italian meatball recipe with non-traditional sauce (store purchased) will get you out of the kitchen fast.
A true Sicilian would only bake this recipe for Italian meatballs, but I prefer to get a nice golden crust on the outside of the meatballs first, before finishing them off in the oven, along with the sauce.
Slice open a large homemade roll and make a quick meal with this easy meatball recipe. Top it off with some sauce, add plenty of napkins! |
Certainly, you may use any sauce, whether it be homemade
tomato sauce (like this one)
or choose to go the easy route with convenient off-the-shelf marinara sauce. Either way, this Italian meatball recipe is so good, they will be outstanding with any sauce you choose to use.
