Easy Meatball Recipe
Don't be fooled by Easy, these meatballs are delicious and perfect for the entire family.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup plain bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 cup onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/2 cup parmesan
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
- 2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 650 ml jars pasta sauce (You need enough to cover the meatballs in the pot)
Instructions
- Soak bread crumbs in milk. Set aside.
- While that soaks, prepare and measure out the rest of the ingredients.
- Combine all ingredients in a large bowl along with the soaked bread crumbs.
- Shape into meatballs.
- In a large frying pan, heat olive oil. Saute meat balls until brown on the outside.
- In a medium sized saucepan and on medium heat, bring pasta sauce to a boil. Add meatballs.
- Reduce heat and simmer for approximately 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
- You don’t need to cook them that long. You can remove them as soon as they reach 160 F or 71 C. But the longer you simmer them, the softer they get.
