Ingredients

1 pound any shape pasta, cooked according to package
Meatballs:
1 pound extra lean ground beef (I use 80%)
1 tablespoon fresh basil, finely chopped
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 large egg
1 cup (about 4 slices) sandwich bread, crumbled *see note
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 (32 ounce) jar marinera sauce
1/4 packed fresh basil leaves, chopped
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon fennel seed
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper, optional
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
Instructions

Meatballs:
Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mix well. Roll into 2 to 2 1/2 tablespoon sized balls (about the size of a golf ball) and place each one in a large skillet or dutch oven with a lid.
Add the olive oil and cook over medium heat and cook, turning every so often until done on all sides and inside, 5 - 6 minutes.
Sauce:
Add the ingredients for the sauce and reduce heat to simmer. Cover pan with lid and allow the sauce to simmer and thicken for about 15 minutes.
Serve the sauce and meatballs over your cooked pasta and top with additional parmesan cheese and fresh basil if desired.
Notes

*This is a great way to make use of extra bread heels! 🙂
