Hey Everybody……. I’m Starting my “Tasty Tuesdays” content where I’ll be sharing some of my recipe creations or a twist on old favorites with a tasty easy recipes.
There’s nothing like sitting down to a hearty and tasty meal with my family especially when I mix the recipe up a bit. With RJ’s allergies and being a picky eater I’m getting creative. Spaghetti and Meatballs is one of our favorites and It’s so easy to make and never disappoints.
I swapped out regular meat balls with @purefarmland plant based meatballs and regular spaghetti with gluten free spaghetti. I then paired it with a @barilla Gluten-Free Tomato Basil Sauce.
Here’s what you’ll need for this recipe all in under 30 minutes. Try it and let me know what you think.
