Spaghetti Meatball Muffins
Equipment
- Muffin form
Ingredients
- 5 oz ground beef
- 1 onion, diced
- salt and pepper
- olive oil
- 3.5 oz cooked spaghetti
- 4 oz grated parmesan
- 4 oz tomato sauce
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh basil
Instructions
- Combine ground beef and onion, season to taste with salt and pepper, and roll the meat into golfball-sized balls. Season a frying pan with a little oil and brown the meatballs on all sides.
- Mix the cooked spaghetti with 3.5 oz parmesan (saving a little for garnishing) and 1 tbsp olive oil. When well-coated, swirl onto a fork against a spoon until you have a portion sizeable enough and gently press into the muffin form.
- Add a spoonful of tomato sauce to the middle of the noodle nest, place a meatball on top, follow with another dollop of sauce and sprinkle with parmesan. Bake at 375 °F for 20 minutes. When ready to serve, garnish with more parmesan and chopped basil leaves.
