Need a quick dinner idea? Try these tasty Meatball Sliders with fresh basil and sprinkled with grated Parmesan cheese. They make a great appetizer too!
I love, love, love meatballs, especially good old-fashioned Italian meatballs.
As much as I enjoy making my own meatballs let’s be real, sometimes life gets too busy to spend a lot of time cooking. Between activities with the kiddos, taking care of chores around the house, deadlines and just wanting to be a mom and spend quality time with my kids the last thing I want to do is spend time in the kitchen.
Finding good quality food that I can heat and serve is important to me. On busy nights I love to have a few things stashed in the freezer that I can make a tasty meal for my family that doesn’t require a lot of time. Mama Mancini’s Slow Cooked Italian Sauce and Meatballs makes pasta night a breeze. Just add in some cooked noodles, whip up a simple side salad and dinner is ready. With all-natural ingredients in the sauce and meatballs, it tastes like I spent all day simmering sauce and meatballs. Mama Mancini meatballs come in four different varieties, beef, turkey, chicken or pork. I even love these simply heated up and sprinkled with cheese and freshly chopped basil.
With the holidays just around the corner, these Meatball Sliders make a great appetizer. They also make a great dinner too. Just whip up a salad to complete the meal.
