How to Make

  • Step 1: Mix together ingredients for meatballs in a bowl.

  • Step 2: Preheat oven to 350F.

  • Step 3: Grease an 8 hole muffin tin.

  • Step 4: Use an ice cream scoop to divide out meatball mix and drop into muffin pan.

  • Step 5: Bake meatballs, for 35 minutes or until inside reaches 160F on an instant read thermometer.

  • Step 6: Drain meatballs on a cookie rack.

  • Step 7: Heat marinara sauce and cook spaghetti and rice noodles (separately) according to package directions.

  • Step 8: Drain pasta, keep spaghetti warm and cool rice noodles in cold water then drain.

  • Step 9: Slice meatballs in half horizontally to make two pieces, each with a flat surface.

  • Step 10: Pat rice noodles dry with paper toweling and layer over the top of the meatball, tucking sliced olives in for eyes.

  • Step 11: It is best to let the meatballs sit still for about 15 minutes so they become more tacky and hold together better.

  • Step 12: But since they will get cold, microwave them on a microwave-safe plate for a minute, then carefully place a mummy meatball onto a nest of sauced spaghetti and serve.
