After all the cooking that I did over the holidays, I wanted to make something simple today. I'm working late tomorrow night at my full time gig, so I wanted to make something that we could have as leftovers. Well, that dish is Spaghetti & Meatballs with Sausage. Brianna has been a vegetarian now for several months. I am not thrilled about it since it has presented some challenges in my meal planning. Brianna loves this meal so, dinner was easy tonight.
You will need the following:
* Your favorite tomato sauce (I use Prego)
* Ground Beef
* Italian Sausage
* Your favorite pasta (I prefer angel hair or vermicelli)
* 2 eggs
* 1 cup Stove Top Stuffing
* Ketchup
Brown the sausage in a large skillet or in the broiler.
While the sausage is cooking, I prepare my meatballs. In a large mixing bowl, I add the ground beef, eggs, stuffing and ketchup. Mix together thoroughly. Roll the meatballs and brown them in a large skillet.
Now is a good time to boil the water for your pasta. You'll also want to prepare your sauce in a large pot.
Once the meatballs and sausage are done, drain them on a paper towel before adding to the sauce.
Once drained, add the meatballs and sausage to the sauce. Allow to simmer.
I like to also add chopped celery, onions and mushrooms to my sauce as well.
I also add a couple of tablespoons of sugar to remove any acidic flavor.
Drain your pasta. Top the pasta with your sauce and serve! Add a little Parmesan cheese for added flavor!
Enjoy!
