Notes
To save time, you can skip sautéing the onions and garlic. Doing so creates a more subtle texture and flavor, particularly for picky eaters.
Ground sausage and/or ground veal may also be used.
The internal temperature of meatballs should be 160 degrees before serving.
Make Ahead Method
These meatballs can be rolled and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours prior to baking.
You can also flash freeze the raw meatballs on a baking sheet for 1.5 hours, then store them in a gallon freezer bag for up to 3 months. Let them defrost in the fridge overnight prior to baking.
Crock Pot Method
Roll the meatballs and place them in a lightly greased Slow Cooker. Top with marinara sauce and heat on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 6-7.
Storage
Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
