This recipe for homemade meatballs is the one my mother made growing up. I now make them for my family, and my picky husband loves them. Serve with your choice of pasta.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 egg
  • 0.5 cups Italian-seasoned bread crumbs
  • 0.25 cups grated Parmesan cheese
  • 4 teaspoons garlic powder , or to taste
  • 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning , or to taste
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 jar marinara sauce , 28 ounce

Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine beef and egg in a large bowl. Add bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Mix together, but do not overmix, as it will get tough.

  2. 2

    Shape into 1- to 2-inch balls.

  3. 3

    Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook meatballs in the hot skillet until browned and no longer pink in the centers, 3 to 5 minutes per side.

  4. 4

    Meanwhile, heat marinara sauce in a pot over medium-low heat. Add cooked meatballs to sauce and let simmer for added flavor, about 15 minutes.
