As a family we want to create traditions and lasting memories with our children. Mealtime is especially important for our family, it’s the time of year that we gather together and enjoy meals together as a family. We are happy to partner with Ragu on this post.
Families are important to a company like Ragu. Founder Assunta, was an immigrant – her entrepreneurial spirit, and strict sauce standards that she demanded were passed down generation over generation. This is a sauce to be celebrated and to be used make your own traditions and that’s exactly what we do.
My husband is an extremely hands on father, having three girls hasn’t stopped him form jumping right in. He often involves our girls in making dinner and one of the things they wanted to make this week an meatballs.
Spaghetti is a favorite in our house so making meatballs and a salad just adds to the meal. I can easily say this is one meal we have each week and it’s quite the tradition for our family now.
Easy Meatballs
- 1 lb ground beef
- 3/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 egg
- season to liking with salt, pepper and Italian seasonings
Since our girls enjoy cooking it’s nice to get their little hands involved in making meals. Meatballs are easy because you just mi everything together in a bowl. Our girls really enjoyed rolling these into balls, and it was fun to really use their hands for a meal.
Then you just cook them in your sauce for 30 minutes until the insides are 360 degrees.
Serve with your favorite sides and a salad topped on spaghetti noodles!
Just like Ragu’s long standing traditions our family tries to create our very own.

Oh those look so easy to make! We love meatballs, but I have not made them for years! I have to try these! So fun for spaghetti!
I usually buy already made meatballs , but after seeing how easy these are to make, I am going to give your recipe a try.
One of my family’s favorite mealtime traditions is we take turns sharing with other about our day. 🙂
Homemade meatballs are the best! I love how the kids helped out in the kitchen how cute.
We love using Ragu in our family and use it in a lot of recipes! It’s become part of our family traditions when it comes to food.
Those look so good. Nothing beats meatballs from scratch and Ragu!
We really enjoy making Italian food in our family!
Your spaghetti and meatballs meal looks absolutely delicious!! We love to use Ragu sauce, too!
We just made Spaghetti and meatballs last week with Ragu! Ragu is the best tasting sauce to make spaghetti with. Your kids did a good job with the meatballs!
Your meal looks amazing and your kiddos are cute. That dessert though would be calling my name the whole way through dinner, lol. That looks great.
We have certain nights designated for special meals (breakfast for dinner one night a week). Meatballs & spaghetti are a crowd pleaser so we have those quite a bit also.
I love that you include your girls in preparing dinner. I love quick and easy meals for my family. Thanks for sharing!
I have never made home made meatballs before. These seem really easy to make and fun to have the kids help. We will have to make these with the kids.
That’s awesome your hubby is in the Kitchen with his girls. My dad taught me to cook breakfast.
It’s so cool that your girls love cooking
Yum. What I wouldn’t do for Spaghetti and Meatballs right now. That looks so good.
Isn’t it great to have the kids in the kitchen? I love to see their faces when they create something they can eat!
Oh my goodness, this is really perfect this coming holiday of Christmas! I’m sure my family would love this.
I’ve never made my own meatballs from home. This looks super easy and so fun for the kids!
Nothing says family comfort food like spaghetti and meatballs! What a delicious recipe and fun kitchen memories!
Those meatballs look so good. Spaghetti and meatballs is one of our favorite family meals.
Yum! This is such a classic and it’s always delicious with Ragu. It looks like the girls had fun!
We make spaghetti and meatballs together all the time. The best is throwing some diced green pepper into them.
I love spaghetti and meatballs! I need to make them for dinner soon.
We love to make our own meatballs too! And, Ragu is always at the top of our grocery list!
