We love our meatballs tossed through any pasta or over gnocchi, with torn basil leaves and lashing of grated Parmesan.
You could also toss the meatballs and sauce with pasta and pour into an oiled baking dish. Top with grated mozzarella (or halved bocconcini) and Parmesan and bake till the cheese is melted and the sauce bubbling.
For an insanely delicious dinner on the go, stuff a short torpedo-shaped roll with meatballs and sauce and scatter with mozzarella then wrap in foil and bake till the cheese has melted.

Bravo! Perfect Italian meatballs with the best tomato sauce I’ve ever had, paired with some fresh basil from the garden and sourdough garlic bread already in the freezer. I added a little tasty cheese to finish off.
