Spaghetti Meatballs

 

1 1/2 lbs ground chicken

3 slices whole wheat bread

1 egg

6 ounces spaghetti (uncooked)

1 jar red pasta sauce

italian seasoning

garlic powder

onion powder

adoboe

 

Put the bread slices in a food processor and pulse until they form crumbs.  Cook the pasta according to directions, breaking into small pieces.  Mix all of the ingredients together in a large bowl (only use 2 tbsp of the sauce and reserve the rest).  Roll the mixture into large balls (I ended up making 11...which drove me crazy since it wasn't even!)  Place in a heated skillet.  Add water as needed to prevent sticking.  Cook on medium heat for about 30 minutes or until the whole meatball is no longer pink.  Pour the rest of the sauce over the meatballs and simmer until heated through. 

 

It is the deliciousness of a classic Italian dish all packed into one ball of meat....and it is so easy to make!   

 

Go ahead, put this down on your dinner menu for the week.

 

May the odds be ever in your flavor!
