Description

Next time you visit your Italian grandmother, bring this dish. Tell her she can make the pasta, but you’ll bring the Italian meatballs and sauce. Then, watch her smile when she digs in. And be sure to say: “See, I learned from the best cook in the world.” (Note: you don’t need an Italian grandmother to make this dish.) This Impossible™ meatball recipe is perfect for making spaghetti and Italian meatballs for the house. the meatballs are quick and easy-to-make, rich and meaty in flavor…and made from plants. This recipe calls for a can of San Marzano tomatoes, a variety of the roma tomato that’s far sweeter, more flavorful and less acidic than your average tomato. Be sure to check the label on the can of tomatoes you buy to make sure you’re getting San Marzanos. Pro tip from our culinary team about bread crumbs: save your leftover slices of bread and let them dry out in a paper bag in your cupboard. Then when you need bread crumbs, just take a few slices out and run them through your food processor or blender. And there you have it: homemade bread crumbs, ready to use in your Impossible™ meatballs. Buon appetito! By Impossible Foods Chef J. Michael Melton.
