Recipe Tips

To make the meatballs more tender, you can soak the breadcrumbs in the milk for a few minutes before adding them to the mixture. If you want to make this recipe even quicker, you can use pre-made frozen meatballs and store-bought marinara sauce. Don't overcook the meatballs as they can become dry and tough. Check them after 20 minutes and adjust the cooking time as needed.
