Indulgent meatballs in rich tomato sauce over pasta, perfect for a cozy family dinner. Don't forget the garlic bread for sauce-dipping delight!
Ingredients:
  • 1.5 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (16 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
  • 0.5 cup red wine
  • 3 tablespoons Italian seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1.5 teaspoons garlic salt
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 0.5 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 0.25 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
  • 0.25 cup grated mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 (16 ounce) package spaghetti
  • 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions:
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté onion and garlic in olive oil until onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Add crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, red wine, Italian seasoning, sugar, garlic powder, and garlic salt. Season with salt and black pepper. Bring to a boil, then simmer on medium-low heat as you make meatballs.
  • Combine ground beef, egg, bread crumbs, mozzarella cheese, and parsley in a large bowl. Shape walnut-sized meatballs and place them in the simmering sauce, ensuring each meatball is fully coated. Increase heat to medium and simmer for about 40 minutes until meatballs are cooked through, flipping them halfway through.
  • 1. Boil a large pot of salted water. 2. Cook spaghetti until al dente, about 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. 3. Drain the spaghetti.
  • Top spaghetti with flavorful meatballs and rich sauce, then finish with a generous sprinkle of aromatic Parmesan cheese.
