Spaghetti is in the regular rotation here. It’s something that’s quick and everyone agrees on.
What could possibly make spaghetti better? Bake it with cheese until it’s bubbly and even MORE delicious!

(It’s okay if you want to skip ahead to the recipe right now … I don’t blame you)
The presentation is beautiful, and the process is simple.
Let’s get started!
To prepare meatballs, combine the ingredients with your hands, then roll into small meatballs.
I was able to get 24 meatballs.
Place in a skillet and brown on all sides and until meatballs are cooked through.
Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess grease.
Place pasta in the bottom of a baking dish, add meatballs…
…then sauce.
Top with both Parmesan and Italian cheese.
Bake for about 15 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly and pasta is heated through.
Garnish with chopped fresh basil for serving, if desired.
