Wow, Noel, thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review! Hearing that you’ve already made them three times and that everyone loved them enough to ask for the recipe truly means so much. That’s one of the best compliments you can get when you cook for someone. I’m so glad you’re enjoying the recipe! ~Jenn

These were so amazing, I made them 3 times in 8 days. Everyone loved them and asked for the recipe. The flavor just hits you. It’s one of those bites where you close your eyes, slow down your chewing motion and just say to yourself, O.M.G. these are SOOOO good!

Hi Debra! Yes, you can. I recommend baking the meatballs first, then finishing them in the sauce. I’ve done this many times and they hold together well—just avoid letting them simmer in the sauce for hours, since they may eventually start to fall apart.

These meatballs sound amazing.I always put my meatballs in the sauce when making my sauce. Can this be done without them falling apart? Thank you!

Hi Dawn! Yes, that’s correct. The nutrition information is for 1 serving, which is 2 large meatballs. Since these are quite large (about 5–6 ounces each), the calories are higher than a typical meatball. Please keep in mind that the nutrition information is automatically calculated and is an estimate. Let me know if you have any other questions! ~Jenn
