Easy Mozzarella Meatball Bake

Hi!! I hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend! The annual neighborhood BBQs and parties might be canceled, but I hope everyone still had a great time.

We had a couple of family friends over and had a nice get together on Friday (early celebration 😉 ). But… now that the leftovers are gone, it’s back to cooking!

Here’s another easy, delicious recipe to try out at home!

Note: For those with more time, try making homemade marinara. It’s actually quite simple, but definitely takes some time and babysitting

I hope everyone enjoys this recipe. I know my family did!

Stay happy, stay healthy! Until next time, Bye!
