FINDING PLEASURES IN THE SIMPLE THINGS

Quick Spaghetti and Meatballs

Where does the time go? We ask that question a lot in this house. 😀 To prepare a quick meal, I sometimes resort to pre-cooked/instant ingredients to help reduce cooking time. I am picky about the quality and taste though, so not a lot of these ingredients make it to my kitchen and stay there. Here’s a favorite dish of ours that is easy to whip up on a busy weeknight – so delicious and I didn’t even have to slave for it. It’s almost a crime. 😀 Enjoy!

1 package spaghetti (we usually use Barilla Whole Grain)
1 or 2 packages Honeysuckle White Turkey Meatballs*
1 or 2 jars Bertolli Pasta Sauce (our favorites are Olive Oil & Garlic and Tomato & Basil)*
Grated Parmesan cheese
 
* The quantity used depends on how much meatballs and sauce you like with your pasta
 

Prepare spaghetti according to the package. Drain and remove to a serving/casserole dish. In a medium saucepan, simmer meatballs and sauce together until heated through. Serve hot with spaghetti, sprinkled with Parmesan. If desired, serve pasta with a side of salad and garlic bread. Happy Eating!

  • You’re absolutely right about time, Chris! I’d do something like that as well when my boys nagged for warm meals at weeknights. After a hard days’ work, I haven’t the time to whip up traditional meals from scratch. I’ve done quorn balls (vegetarian mock meat ) with the spaghetti sauce or pesto sauce and the boys loved them. You’re not the only “criminal” here, Chris. I’m just as “wicked” LOL! Your spagbol platter looks delish 😛
