I mean, what’s not to love about this Easy Meatballs Recipe, I ask you?! I have yet to come across a person who doesn’t think it’s a good idea to get stuck into this meal at any time, whether they’re 1 or 100. Yes, you can buy ready-made meatballs, but to be honest every time I do I’m disappointed, so now I stick to homemade meatballs. It’s one thing that is always worth the time and effort (and actually, it only takes about 15 minutes to get stuck in to mixing and rolling them). To save time, I’ve simplified parts of the rest of the recipe so I can enjoy rolling these little beauts. Get stuck in and enjoy. ✅ Perfect for make-ahead batch cooking ✅ Rich, hearty and good for the soul ✅ Perfect for the whole family or guests All that said, if you only have beef they will still be delicious, just a slightly different texture. Once everything is combined you can shape the mixture into about 12 equally-sized meatballs (about the size of a walnut in the shell), OR 24 smaller hazelnut-in-a-shell-sized balls. Really it’s down to your own preference, but smaller meatballs might need slightly less cooking time. I ALWAYS make a double batch when I’m making meatballs. Make double the recipe amount (minus the spaghetti), and save a few portions in freezer-safe containers for another day. This is my take on classic Italian meatballs, including the seal of approval from my Italian husband!
