I used Ground Chicken this time because it's what I had and it's healthier. For a tastier meatball and less healthy, you can use Country Breakfast Pork Sausage.

Mmmmeatballs!

Difficulty: ★ ☆ ☆This is the iconic dish of Italian Sundays, especially here in the South. Just the smell of it takes me back to Sunday mornings when I was a child, waking up to the aroma that drew me into the kitchen. It's a traditional dish made with simple ingredients, using a 50/50 mix of meat and soaked stale bread. In the past, meat was a luxury, eaten once a week if you were lucky, so bread was used to supplement it.The remaining ingredients are garlic, parsley, grated pecorino cheese (nowadays often mixed with parmesan to mellow it out), salt, and pepper.The meatballs are then fried and eaten as is, or simmered in a simple tomato sauce, making them suitable as both a first and second course.It's perhaps the dish that most embodies love in the form of food. Cook it for those you love.
