Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meatball Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Meatballs

    Using your hands, form the mixture into meatballs about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  3. 3

    Cook the Meatballs

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are cooked through and browned.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Tomato Sauce

    While the meatballs are baking, prepare your favorite tomato sauce in a saucepan over medium heat.

  5. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Once the meatballs are cooked, add them to the tomato sauce and let them simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes. Serve hot, garnished with extra grated cheese if desired.
