These meatballs will become the new regular on your dinner rotation! My husband took one look at these and couldn’t wait to dig in. Even my picky 5 year old loved them! Serve them on a toothpick and kids with bold tastebuds will go nuts for them! You can adjust the level of spiciness on these, too!
