Preheat & Prep: Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Make the Meatball Base

Roll the Meatballs: Scoop and roll into even, golf-ball–sized meatballs. Place on the prepared baking sheet.

Bake: for 18–22 minutes, or until fully cooked through and lightly browned.

Make the Christmas Sauce

Combine & Simmer
Add baked meatballs directly into the sauce. Gently toss to coat and simmer together for 10 minutes so all that flavor soaks in.
