What’s better than a big, fat, juicy meatball? That’s what a huge, fat, juicy meatball stuffed with melty mozzarella cheese is.

You wouldn’t even know it was there at first glance, but then you cut it into an extra big meatball and, surprise! Just look at the beauty of the melty tasty easy meatball recipes.
Best recipe for meatballs
We used a blend of ground beef and pork, plenty of garlic and chopped fresh basil and parsley for flavor, and fresh breadcrumbs for texture and shape (fresh breadcrumbs will result in a much moister meatball than packaged breadcrumbs which are usually very dry.)

Meatballs and Gravy Recipe
Italians call their sauce ‘gravy’. We might call the gravy ‘sauce’. Whatever you call it, you have to have a beautiful sauce to let the meatballs hang out in. I usually make it easy on myself, and buy a really nice brand of marinara sauce. Because I love a lot of sauce or gravy, I’m going to double and use two jars.
Baked Meatballs
Baking meatballs is really effortless. And, as your meatballs are baking, move on to the marinara sauce. Buy the best brand your budget can manage. You can always improve the taste with fresh chopped herbs, lots of basil or if you have basil pesto, add some to the sauce. Another great add in is heavy cream and grated parmesan. Once those meatballs are ready. You’ll drench them in the this sauce, and I guarantee the sauce will move off the charts in flavor and taste because of the meatballs!
Homemade Meatballs
These homemade Italian meatballs get better and better on days two and three. That is, IF there are any left to ‘age’ that long! I usually make these meatballs when I’m making my ‘Bohemian Bolognese’, a ‘Signature Recipe’, because most all the stuff is there and ready to go.
It’s just a matter of rolling the meatballs and stuffing them, and, that’s an option that you can choose or not. These are great for snacks and making sandwiches, too!
Mozzarella stuffed meatballs
You do not want to compress the mixture for Mediterranean Meatballs With Red Gravy too much when mixing the meatballs. Instead of mushing or stirring to retain some of the fluffiness of the ground beef, imagine it something like ‘folding’. This can translate to a lighter texture that is fluffier and eventually a healthier meatball. The same thing you do when you make your balls: form them, just don’t pinch them.
These italian meatballs have a super surprise in the center. Creamy delicious mozzarella cheese! OMG! You're gonna LOVE LOVE! In a large mixing bowl, combine the meat, pepperoni, herbs, eggs, bread crumbs and cream and blend with your hands/fingers. Add the grated cheese, salt, pepper, chili flakes and blend. Begin rolling into the meat into balls (mine are usually about golf ball plus size). With each ball, poke your finger in the middle about making a good opening. Stuff in the piece of mozzarella and close opening and roll meatball so the cheese does not show. Place the meatballs on a parchment paper covered cookie sheet. Bake in a preheated 375 oven for about 25 minutes or until done. As the meatballs are baking, move on to heating the marinara sauce. Pour the marinara sauce in a large pot over medium low heat. Carefully place the cooked meatballs and the drippings (scrape all the good stuff from the parchment paper) in the sauce. Cover and let the meatballs simmer on low for about 30 minutes or longer.

Dry breadcrumbs are made from dry bread which has been baked or toasted to remove most remaining moisture, and may even have a sandy or even powdery texture. Bread crumbs are most easily produced by pulverizing slices of bread in a food processor, using a steel blade to make coarse crumbs, or a grating blade to make fine crumbs. A grater or similar tool will also do.’
