Yield: about 24 meatballs
Meatballs are a must at home. They are an excellent appetizer, great with spaghetti with your favorite sauce, even in sandwiches! These are the best-baked meatballs that you can easily make at any time. They are packed with flavors and incredibly tender!
These Incredible baked meatballs are crowd-approved. I have been making these meatballs for years. My kids are obsessed with these meatballs, and I always make a huge batch for later. And my daughter refers to these meatballs as mini meatloaves. If planning to double or triple the recipe, just freeze the second batch. You can reheat the meatballs with sauce topped with cheese. Then, serve as a meatball sandwich. And I always have leftover rind from the Parmesan. What I would do is place it in a crockpot with marinara sauce and allow it to simmer. This is great for boosting the flavor of most sauces or soups. You should try it, too!
Make sure to give these incredible baked meatballs a try very soon. I am pretty sure that your kids will be blown away!
