Instruction tip
Tip:Double or triple the meatballs recipe to create a bigger batch. Spoon cooled meatball mixture, without the basil, into one or more airtight containers, then store in the fridge or freezer. If freezing, thaw overnight in the fridge. To reheat, place meatball mixture in a saucepan over low heat and cook for 15 minutes or until heated through.
