So I was looking into my inventory of what little I had and this is what I saw: ground beef, eggs, one Italian sausage, Italian bread crumbs and a bunch of spices. I also noticed some spaghetti, so naturally, I thought good ole spaghetti and meatballs would do the trick. Instead of frying them, I decided to bake them because they're so greasy, anyway. I also found ingredients to make my own sauce!
Meatballs
INGREDIENTS
tbsp olive oil
1 Italian Sausage
1 lb of ground beef
1 egg
1/3 cup bread crumbs
1 tsp (or more) cayenne pepper
salt and pepper to taste
1tbsp Italian seasoning
- Heat the oven to 350degrees, grease a baking sheet with the olive oil and stick it in the oven while the oven's preheating
- In a bowl, combine all the ingredients and mix! It's best to use your hands, really.
- make little balls and place them on the heated baking dish.
- flatten the top of the balls because you will need to turn them over.
- bake them in the oven for 15 minutes
- after fifteen minutes, take them out, turn them over, then stick them in the oven for another 5 minutes.
- Presto! You have made deliciously spicy meatballs!
Pasta Sauce (red)
INGREDIENTS
1 14-16 ounce can tomato paste
1 can of milk (measure with the tomato paste can)
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp Italian Seasoning
salt and pepper to taste
2 large cloves of garlic, minced
1/4 cup of chopped chives
- Heat a skillet on med high and add the tomato paste and milk
- stir until everything's incorporated
- add everything else
- keep stirring until you have a nice simmer.
- Done!!
