Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound ground beef
¾ cup bread crumbs
2 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 egg, beaten
1 French baguette
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 pinch salt, or to taste
1 (14 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
4 slices provolone cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • In a medium bowl, gently mix by hand the ground beef, bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, garlic, parsley, Parmesan cheese, and egg. Shape into 12 meatballs, and place in a baking dish.
  • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until cooked through. Meanwhile, cut the baguette in half lengthwise, and remove some of the bread from the inside to make a well for the meatballs. Brush with olive oil, and season with garlic powder and salt. Slip the baguette into the oven during the last 5 minutes of the meatball's time, or until lightly toasted.
  • While the bread toasts, warm the spaghetti sauce in a saucepan over medium heat. When the meatballs are done, use a slotted spoon to transfer them to the sauce. Spoon onto the baguette and top with slices of provolone cheese. Return to the oven for 2 to 3 minutes to melt the cheese. Cool slightly, cut into servings, and enjoy!

MARINARA SAUCE (WITH OR WITHOUT MEAT)



Marinara Sauce (With or Without Meat) image

I got this recipe off the Internet a few years ago (I wish I could remember where!). It originally called for meat, which I still add, but lately I've been using it as a marinara sauce for main dishes that require spaghetti sauce. It's yummy, simple & comes together in no time. Plus you can easily cut it in half for whatever purposes! I use this for pizza-type recipes as well! Please feel free to play around with the spices!

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup onion, chopped
3 -4 minced garlic cloves (I use the jarred kind)
2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
2 cups water
3 teaspoons dried parsley
3 teaspoons italian seasoning
1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil
1/2 teaspoon Splenda sugar substitute
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
3/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 lb ground beef (optional) or 1 lb ground turkey (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, brown onion & garlic over medium heat. If using meat, brown with the onion & garlic-drain well.
  • Add rest of ingredients on medicum-low heat. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover & simmer 15-20 minutes. Stir sauce every 5 minutes.
  • Serve over pasta, or use in other dishes.
  • I believe this makes about 4 cups-but it's a guess!
