Antoinette Gangi demonstrates her viral meatball recipe

ground beef

🥗Healthier: ground turkey

💰Cheaper: ground pork

Ground turkey is lower in fat, while ground pork is often more affordable.

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast is lower in calories and provides a cheesy flavor, while pecorino is usually less expensive.

Wash your hands before starting.

In a bowl, combine 8515 ground beef sirloin with flavored breadcrumbs, granulated garlic, granulated onion, fresh parsley, and grated Locatelli Romano cheese.

Wet your palms to prevent the meat mixture from sticking.

Roll the mixture into meatballs, making them as big as you want, but every third meatball, wet your hands again to help keep them together.

Drop the rolled meatballs directly into the sauce.

Cook the meatballs in the sauce for almost two hours at a temperature of 160°F.

The meatballs will absorb the flavor from the sauce as they cook.
