This turned out really good. I didn't have the fresh herbs so I used dried herbs and it was still delicious.

This was my second time cooking dinner for my Girlfriend and her sons, but it turnwd out well! The meatballs stole the show and everyone enjoyed the meal. The sauce was a little thin, but i admit i added 1/2 lb extra ground beef and only 24oz of spaghetti sauce.

I made the meatballs but with only beef and without the parsley and basil (cause I’m not a fan of either of those in general), and they turned out great!! Whole family loves them!

Yummy! My go to recipe for meatballs

Yummly User 4 years ago
These were very good. I used beef and hot Italian sausage meat, used 2 eggs, and used homemade marinara rather than water. Very light. Only made the meatballs. Made about 48 in total.

Best thing ever! I also followed the rao’s sauce recommendations. I’m making it again for the second time.

Easy to make and tasty. I used all ground beef instead of a combination.

Perfect!! Instead of putting them in the sauce (1 kid doesn’t like sauce) I just baked them for an extra few minutes!! My family looks forward to meatball and spaghetti night! GO DAD!! :)
