Broiled Meatballs
Jump to recipe
Broiled meatballs are the perfect weeknight dinner.
Easy to throw together and quick to cook, meatballs have saved me more times than I care to admit when I have no idea what to do for dinner.
Honestly, I was never a fan of meatballs until my mother in law taught me how to make them for Sunday dinner. 15 years later, I’ve tweaked the recipe and now make meatballs at least once a week.
Of course I recommend serving with my Super Simple Red Sauce. If you’re short on time, any jarred sauce will do (but we recommend Rao’s!).

- Spray a large cookie sheet with non stick spray.
- Combine ingredients in a large bowl, using hands. Using a cookie scoop or hands, form into 16 balls.
