Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Meatball Mixture
In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully combined.
Make the Tomato Sauce
In the same skillet, add the canned crushed tomatoes and Italian seasoning. Stir well, allowing the sauce to simmer for about 10 minutes until slightly thickened.
Cook the Spaghetti
While the sauce is simmering, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Assemble the Dish
Place the cooked spaghetti on a plate, top it with the meatball, and spoon the homemade tomato sauce over the top. Serve with a slice of bread on the side.
