Everybody loves a plate of quick meatballs. However, not many people know how easy and quick it is to produce high quality tasty meatballs every time. Another benefit is I make mine a day in advance and put them in the fridge overnight. This helps the ingredients to absorb each others flavours. In addition, I have days where I batch cook. This means that my freezer never runs out of meatballs and my children and grandchildren are never hungry. Almost ever time I cook these, my grandchildren help with the mixing and rolling the meat into balls. It has become a family event.
