With all of the comfort and delicious taste of a restaurant-quality meal, you can make your own plate of pasta with meatballs in 15 minutes, using 3 ingredients. Your family dinners just got a whole lot easier with our fresh pasta and a quality homemade or store-bought sauce.
After a busy day, prepare something the entire family will enjoy. Serve a tasty green salad and garlic bread on the side or toss your pasta with roasted vegetables of choice. For an elevated touch, first sauté red pepper flakes in hot oil and before adding the marinara sauce and garnish with chopped basil or parsley leaves or freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
While this recipe calls for frozen meatballs, feel free to prepare a large batch of your own homemade meatballs and freeze them in advance for delicious weeknight dinners. Get any younger family members to help mix and roll the meatballs into larger or smaller sizes.
Angel Hair Pasta vs Spaghetti
The light and delicate bite of Olivieri® Angel Hair pasta is still a long variety, however it is much finer in contrast to others like spaghetti or ribbon-like pasta such as linguine.
Angel hair pairs perfectly with all kinds of dishes and lighter or simpler sauces such as Olivieri® Basil & Cheese Pesto.
