If you don't know what "first bite epiphany" means, you will after you try this. It's simple, sinfully good and makes a ton of leftovers. Great for picky kids, or even adults with a refined palate. Bad for people who eat bland food, this will kill them at 20 paces.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs ground beef, at least 90% lean shopping list
- 2 eggs shopping list
- 4 garlic cloves, diced shopping list
- 1/2 cup Grated parmesan cheese (Plus more for garnish) shopping list
- 1 fistful of each: basil, oregano, Parlsey, thyme, tarragon shopping list
- 1/2 fistful of each: salt, pepper, onion and garlic powder, crushed rosemary leaves. shopping list

How to make it
- Put sauce and paste into a large crock pot, mix, cover and simmer over medium heat until bubbly.
- Clean your hands!! Not just the palms, but the fingertips and under the nails too.
- Put chopmeat and chopped garlic into large mixing bowl, add spices and eggs, mix well using hands. Trust me, it's more gratifying this way.
- When mixed, roll into 1" balls (huh huh, I said "balls") and drop into simmering sauce.
- Add about 1 Tbspn of parlsey, oregano, basil, pepper, onion and garlic powder to the sauce. You can skip this step if you want, but you've come this far, so live a little!!
- Cover and let simmer on medium heat for 1 hour, stirring the meatballs around occasionally.
- After the meatballs have simmered for about 40 minutes, put up the pasta. They should be done about the same time.
- Serve pasta with meatballs and sauce over the top, garnished with extra parmesan cheese if desired.
- Mmm-MMM, yo! lol
Lots o' spices.
