This meatball recipe is a mom life version inspired by my great Italian “Nani’s” reciepe. A recipe that I love to make on occasion. But, it does take time and prep, I recently had purchased some ground chicken on accident. I meant to pick up ground turkey, and when it arrived I wasn’t sure what I wanted to make. So, I pulled out my grandmother’s recipe and called a mom-ible, aka a mom-audible, and did a quick and easy version. Needless to say, they turned out delicious. This recipe is a must try!
