Italian Spaghetti

My Italian Spaghetti recipe with meatballs is not only authentic – it’s much better tasting than traditional spaghetti! I think people forget sometimes how easy it is to make your own sauce and make homemade meatballs to go along with it! Forget about those over processed crappy meatballs in the bag at the store, get the kids involved and have them help you make meatballs for spaghetti from scratch! They will love helping you make them, but more importantly they will love helping your family EAT THEM!

Ingredients needed for Italian Spaghetti Sauce:
Sauce

  • 1 large onion
  • 1 can tomatoes
  • 2 cans tomato paste
  • 1 qt. water
  • teaspoon sugar
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:
Fry onion in oil until brown. Mix all other ingredients with onion and cook down until thick.

Ingredients needed for Italian Meatballs from scratch:
Meatballs

  • 2 cups bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated italian cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 small onion, grated
  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 2 eggs
  • fresh parsley, chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:
Mix all ingredients together adding a bit of water while mixing, which will make the balls light and fluffy. Brown the meat balls; drop into the sauce. Let the sauce cook down slowly until done. Cook spaghetti according to package directions and mix with sauce when done. I hope you like these as much as my family does!
