Dine In taste

I’m on a roll – with meatballs

This post has been sponsored by Perdue Farms. All opinions are strictly my own.

I have a bad habit of starting and giving up, so I figured if I took a cooking break for even ONE day, that just like that time I gave up soda and picked it back up the very next day, that I’d fall back into that habit of dialing for dinner. This time I decided to make meatballs. These are some of those things that I do often, only because pasta and meatballs, sausage, etc. are my favorite foods. It’s funny how if you really LOVE something, the cooking comes much easier (that’s probably why I am really good at baking).  

They are easy to make and best of all, these taste as good as your favorite restaurant.

Zippy’s Atsa (not too) Spicy Meatball (but they can be)

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. Panorama Organic Grass-Fed Ground Beef
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup of shredded Parmesan Cheese (don’t use the powdered kind with the green lid – it won’t give the same flavor)
  • 1 tbsp Garlic puree or finely chop 1 tbsp of garlic
  • ½ cup Italian bread crumbs
  • 1 tbsp Italian Herbs
  • 2 tbls Parsley flakes
  • Salt & Pepper to taste
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil for cooking

All of the ingredients go into the bowl

Recipe

  1. Dump ALL of the ingredients except the olive oil into a bowl.
  2. Mix thoroughly – using your hands is the ONLY way to go
  3. Roll the meatballs into 1½” uniform sized balls
  4. Spread olive oil on the bottom of a frying pan
  5. Heat burner to med-high
  6. Brown the meatballs on all sides, flipping and cook (approx 2 minutes for each side)
  7. Add the meatballs to your sauce and  continue to cook for another 10 minutes or so until cooked through

 

 

Sauce

I use Rachel Ferrucci’s Easy Italian Sauce for my red sauce recipe (because it reminds me of my mother’s).

HINT:

Always use the BEST ingredients when cooking. You’ll taste the difference. That’s why my sauce is always made with Tuttarosa tomatoes and my meatballs with Panorama Organic Grass-Fed Ground Beef
