I used to find cooking intimidating; but the more often you do it, the easier it gets and more fun, too :)
Here’s a quick & yummy meatball recipe.
Preheat the oven, while you work, at 425 degrees. In the 10 minutes it takes to warm up, you should be ready to pop your meatballs into the oven.
Assemble your ingredients:
1 pound minced meat
2 eggs
chopped onion
grated cheese (I use Parmesan)
chopped spinach (optional)
breadcrumbs
olive oil
spices (optional)
Mix ‘em all together, by hand, like you were a kid and this was a big bucket of gooey putty.
When you’re done, start making balls by rolling them in the palm of your hand.
There are no rules as to size or shape; heck, it could all be one giant ball —- aka meatloaf!
Set balls on a baking tray, making sure they’re not touching, and pop into the oven for around 20 minutes (keep an eye on them to get the right color).
And... presto!
I won’t tell you how to boil pasta, but I’ll show you a steaming bowl of it:
Also, you could make tomato sauce from scratch (and we’ve attempted it) but, typically, we get ours from a jar.
Lastly, you might like to pair this delicious dish of comfort food with a healthy salad and a cold beer—-cheers!
