The base recipe can be used with your favorite pasta sauce. Recently I served these meatballs with spinach ravioli and alfredo sauce and they were scrumptious!
Ingredients:
1 pound lean ground beef
1 pound pork sausage (I prefer reduced-fat)
2/3 cup prepared Italian style bread crumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (I used Grana Padano)
2 eggs
1/3 cup finely minced onion
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/3 cup minced fresh parsley
1 teaspoon dry Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Small amount cooking oil
Directions:
1.In large mixing bowl, measure the meats, bread crumbs, cheese, eggs, onion, garlic, parsley, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
2.Mix thoroughly until well combined. Form into 2-inch size balls.
3.Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a non-stick large skillet over medium heat (I use 2 separate skillets to get meatballs done at same time.)
4.Cook meatballs until well browned, turning occasionally (approximately 15-20 minutes; I add a lid toward the end to steam through to centers.)
5.Serve with spaghetti sauce or alfredo sauce.
