Spaghetti and Pork Meatballs

Post by Kchurchill5 » Tue Aug 09, 2016 10:11 am

No real recipe here; but, I though I would post it because it looked pretty good.

A pretty classic meatball recipe; but, using ground pork. Fresh bread soaked in milk, dried parsley, thyme, and oregano, scallions, garlic, lots of red pepper flakes, egg - no cheese in these)
Cooked in a cabernet marinara sauce; finished with an Italian cheese blend and plenty of fresh herbs.
Nothing fancy, good comfort food.

Thx so much; I was really happy. It wasn't really a recipe; but, it came out really good. I may post it; because I didn't see a basic pork meatball here. It had just a nice flavor; and a bit lighter.

It's dinner again tonight ... too lazy to cook tonight; so, why not.

Thx Blonde, appreciate it; they turned out better than I thought. I usually dont use all pork; but, like them. I still have 5 in the freezer too for later ... Maybe a hoagie!!

B, it was really an after thought what to do with the extra ground pork. I thought Thai; but, then, I just went w/meatballs. And, no cheese ... a bit different; so, I could use them a few different ways if needed. I was happy. With just 5 (because of the size); I got 2 meals and 1 lunch (lunch in the freezer).

But, thank you. I usually don't do a heavy tomato sauce; but, I enjoyed it. Carb overload!! lol.
