    Prepare the Meatballs

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

    Form the Meatballs

    Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet or plate.

    Cook the Meatballs

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.

    In the same skillet, add crushed tomatoes and Italian seasoning. Stir and bring to a simmer.
