Meatballs, but make them Italian. Today we’re serving up a classic straight from Nonna’s kitchen: Polpette simmered in rich tomato sauce.

These little beefy bites are cheesy, tender, and full of comfort. No frying, no fuss, just drop them right into a bubbling sauce and let the magic happen. Serve them over pasta if you like, or keep it simple with fresh basil and Parm on top. Either way, they’re pure joy in a bowl.

Who’s hungry for a plate of polpette this weekend?
