Ingredients
1½ pounds meatloaf mix (beef, pork, veal combo)
4 cloves garlic-roughly chopped, not minced
a handful of chopped parsley
1 cup bread crumbs (I used Schar gluten free brand)
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese (not grated) (sometimes I use grated asiago cheese)
2 eggs
salt to taste
Sauce of your choice (approx two 24-oz jars)
Mozzarella cheese to top it off with!
Instructions:
Mix all of the above meatball ingredients and form your meatballs-not too large. Pour 1-2 Tablespoons oil on a baking stone or pan with sides and bake at 400 for 20 minutes.
Lower oven to 375.
Pour some sauce in the bottom of your dish. Lay meatballs on top of the sauce. Cover with more sauce and dress the top up with plenty of mozzarella. Cover with foil and bake for 20 mins.
Remove foil and bake an additional 20 mins or until meatballs are cooked through and cheese is browning. For the last few minutes you can raise the oven temperature to help with browning.

I would definitely add more spices, like montreal steak spice(no salt)a little bit of worchy sauce or HP sauce, and fresh oregano. All this just to the meatball mixture and maybe let it sit for an hour or so in the fridge or overnight. Maybe use a stronger cheese along with the mozzarella which is a bit bland. Try smoked swiss or gruyere(really makes a difference). Sounds good, will try it. Thanks.
Recipe I’m going to make
Great recipe. I used ground turkey and it was delicious. An Ina Garten instruction when making meatballs it meatloaf: mix ingredients together using two forks. Meat will be juicier and tender. Handling it too much can make the meat tough. Thank you!
