15 Minute Spaghetti and Meatball Dinner


This recipe is easy enough for my husband/older child to make.

Spaghetti and Meatballs

What you will need:
frozen meatballs (I used Farm Rich Italian Meatballs)
spaghetti
spaghetti sauce
pots and pans

First take 20-25 frozen meatballs and place them in the bottom of a large sauce pan, in a single layer. 


Next pour your favorite jar of spaghetti sauce over the meatballs.  (If you don't like to use jarred spaghetti sauce you can make your own.)  I like to doctor my sauce up a little.  I add some garlic, basil, and pepper to taste. Make your sauce how you and your family like it.


Bring your sauce and meatballs to a low boil.  Turn down to low heat and let simmer for 15-25 minutes, or until meatballs are warmed all the way through. (the meatballs are fully cooked so you are just heating them through)  Serve over cooked spaghetti.







With a green salad and some garlic bread it is a fast, easy, fantastic weeknight meal.

All my kids loved the Farm Rich meatballs.  My 2 year old, who is my pickiest eater, told me several times the meatballs were delicious.  How great is that?!

Meatballs and cheesesticks, or pizza slices. I have had the cheesesticks before, but never the pizza slices. I would like to make the meal you just made with pizza slices for an appetizer!
