Let’s bullshit and make meatballs

1 lb ground beef (or your preferred meat)

• 1/2 cup Italian Seasoned Breadcrumbs

• 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese

• 2 tbls dried parsley

• 1 tbls Italian seasoning dried

• 1 egg- add aonther egg for softer meatballs

• 3 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 tsp salt

• 1/2 tsp black pepper

• For the Sauce:

  • 2 cans tomates (homemade or your favorite jarred version)

  • 1/4 cp olive oil

  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil and parsley

  • 1/4 cup parmesan and rind

  • Salt and pepper

  • garlic powder- tbls

Instructions:

1. Mix It Up:

   • In a large bowl, combine all meatball ingredients. Get your hands in there and mix until just combined.

   • Don’t overmix! We want tender meatballs, not hockey pucks.

2. Shape & Bake:

   • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

   • Roll the mixture into 1.5-inch meatballs and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

   • Bake for 15-20 minutes or until browned and cooked through.

   • You can also fry them like I did in the video.

3. Sauce It Up:

   • While the meatballs are baking, heat your marinara sauce in a large skillet over medium heat.

   • Once the meatballs are ready, add them to the sauce and let them simmer for another 10 minutes.

4. Serve & Chat:

   • Sprinkle with fresh basil or parsley and extra Parmesan before serving.

   • Pair with pasta, crusty bread, or eat them straight from the pan like a true kitchen pro.
