I’m on the meatballs again! We’ve had regular meatballs, one-pan spaghetti and meatballs, mozzarella stuffed meatballs, hidden veg meatballs , Smoky Meatballs, Chinese Curry Meatballs and even Halloween Meatballs. I haven’t even started on Swedish meatballs, Sticky Asian meatballs, BBQ’d meatballs or curried meatballs yet!. Okay, writing the word meatballs twelve times in the first few lines of a post is pretty ridiculous. I’ll stop now. So I made these, erm…. Delicious meaty bites 😀 …for my most recent trip to my grandad’s. Cooking for thirteen people every few weeks is always a bit of a challenge - especially when I cook most of it ahead, then travel the 90 minutes to get there, before finishing it off in my grandad’s kitchen.It’s exactly the kind of challenge I like though! I cooked these Cheesy Baked Meatballs up at home (in two large dishes - the little dish in the pics was the one I saved for a freezer meal), then reheated them whilst I was cooking the spaghetti. Really simple to prepare, you just need to make and roll the meatballs (sorry, I’m out of alternative words now), then bake them for 10 minutes before adding in a few sauce ingredients and a good sprinkling of cheese. Stick them back in the oven for another 15-20 minutes and you’re done. In these Cheesy Baked Meatballs there is no frying of meatballs or stirring sauces - let’s save on that washing up. My sister made the most delicious chocolate cake for pudding, and my grandad made his amazing apple pie too. Needless to say we were all stuffed! Next week I’ll be doing the pud and my mum is doing the main course. I’m thinking of something like a fruity paradise slice with coconut, raisins and jam. I’ll do some experimenting this week and will hopefully share it with you guys if it turns out good.If not, it’ll be shop-bought carrot cake! No shame in shop-bought every now and then 🙂
