Spaghetti & Meatballs

There's really not too much to say about this dish. Spaghetti, tomato sauce and meatballs. What's not to like?

Prep. Time: 30 mins.
Cooking Time: 1 hr. 15 mins.
Servings: 6-8


Ingredients:

Meatballs
1 clove garlic, minced
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
3/4 cup Parmesan cheese
3/4 cup bread crumbs
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 tsp oregano
1 + 1/2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
3/4 lbs ground beef
3/4 lbs ground pork

Spaghetti Sauce
2 x 32 oz cans. of diced tomatoes
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 yellow onion, chopped
3/4 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp basil
1/4 tsp thyme
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1 lb spaghetti noodles


Directions:

In a large mixing bowl, mix together the minced garlic, egg, milk, Parmesan, bread crumbs, salt, oregano, Worcestershire, beef and pork.

Mold into individual meatballs, about the size of a golf-ball, and set aside.

In a large pot, saute the onions and garlic for approximately 5-10 mins.

Add in the tomatoes, oregano, basil, thyme, red pepper and meatballs and bring to a boil. If you're making the dish vegetarian, the meatballs can be pan fried for 10 mins. on the side instead of added directly into the sauce.

Cover and let simmer for 1 hr.

Serve over spaghetti.
