Provided by Matthew Johnson

Categories     Dinner

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

¼ cup olive oil
2 large yellow onions, chopped
10 cloves garlic, minced
kosher salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
12 oz tomato paste
55 oz crushed tomato, 2 cans
1 tablespoon dried basil
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1 lb ground beef
1 lb ground pork
1 cup bread crumbs
½ cup ricotta cheese
¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped
2 large eggs, beaten
½ cup grated parmesan cheese
¼ cup milk
kosher salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
1 lb dried spathetti
fresh basil, chopped
grated parmesan cheese, fresh

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Set a wire rack over a baking sheet and grease with nonstick spray.
  • Make the marinara sauce: Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and season with salt, pepper, and the red pepper flakes. Cook until soft and caramelized, about 15 minutes.
  • Set aside ⅓ cup (50 G) of the cooked onions and garlic for the meatballs and let cool.
  • Stir the tomato paste into the onions and cook until browned and aromatic, 3-5 minutes.
  • Add the crushed tomatoes, dried basil, dried oregano, and dried parsley. Stir together and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 30 minutes.
  • Make the meatballs: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, reserved onion and garlic mixture, bread crumbs, ricotta, parsley, eggs, Parmesan, milk, salt, and pepper. Mix with your hands until well combined.
  • Shape about 2 ounces (55 G) of meat at a time into balls and set on the prepared wire rack.
  • Bake the meatballs for 20 minutes, until the outsides are browned and the centers are tender and juicy and reach about 155˚F (68˚C).
  • Bring a large pot of water to boil and add a generous pinch of salt. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions, 7-10 minutes, until al dente. Stir occasionally to keep the noodles from sticking together.
  • Drain the pasta and add it directly to the simmering marinara sauce. Reserve some pasta water, in case you need it to loosen the sauce. Stir the pasta into the sauce until fully coated.
  • Add the pasta to serving bowls, top with the meatballs, and garnish with Parmesan, fresh basil, and cracked pepper.
  • Enjoy!

SPAGHETTI AND MEATBALL CASSEROLE



Spaghetti and Meatball Casserole image

I was going to make spaghetti pie but I didn't have any ricotta or cottage cheese so I tweeked it and came up with this. My son and BF loved it! The measurements are approximate since I don't really use measuring cups when I cook, I just kinda eye it up. I hope you like it as much as we did!

Provided by PSU Lioness

Categories     Spaghetti

Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 ounces spaghetti
1 egg
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
25 pepperoni slices
20 precooked meatballs
1 (26 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce with meat
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried onion flakes
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375.
  • Cook spaghetti according to package directions; drain. Add egg and Parmesan cheese to spaghetti and stir to combine (I used my hands and it worked well).
  • Press spaghetti mixture into the bottom of a sprayed 8x8 glass baking dish. Cover spaghetti mixture with a layer of sliced pepperoni. Cover pepperoni with 1/2 c shredded Mozzarella cheese.
  • Cook precooked, frozen meatballs according to package directions (I just microwaved them). Cut them in half. Layer the meatball halves over the cheese mixture (number of meatballs is approximate. We used smaller meatballs so adjust to cover the whole casserole).
  • Combine spaghetti sauce, garlic powder and dehydrated onion flakes in a bowl. Spoon over meatball layer.
  • Sprinkle 1/2 c Mozzarella cheese over the spaghetti sauce mixture. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake approximately another 20 minutes or until bubbly.
  • Again, the measurements for this recipe are approximately. Please adjust to your own tastes. And I didn't have any on hand but I would've like to have added cooked green peppers to the sauce. So get creative! I'm anxious to hear what combinations everyone comes up with!
