2-3 servings

Ingredients

  • pre-made sauce of choice, 2-3 cups (marinara, tomato, arrabbiata)
  • organic grass fed ground beef, 1 lb
    Snake River Farms
  • garlic cloves, 2 cloves, diced (optional, use powder)
  • egg, 1 whole
  • nutritional yeast or parmesan, 1/4 cup
  • italian seasoning, 2 tsp each or a blend (basil, oregano, thyme)
  • garlic powder, 1 tsp if using fresh, 2 tsp if not.
  • salt & pepper, to taste

Directions

  1. Prepare to simmer your sauce of choice over medium-low heat in a large saucepan.

  2. Prepare the meatballs. Add all ingredients to a large bowl.

  3. Mix until just combined without overworking the meat.

  4. Hand scoop and form into medium meatballs. If too wet, add more nutritional yeast or parmesan.

  5. Place meatballs directly into simmering sauce in a covered pan, slightly lower if needed for a gentle simmer.

  6. Cook on low heat for 25–30 minutes until fully cooked through.

  7. Expect rendered fat to rise into the sauce. Stir before serving.
