Italian Ricotta Meatballs

These large, homemade Italian ricotta meatballs are a game changer! They have a crisp exterior, but are unbelievably tender when you cut into them. You can certainly serve them with spaghetti, but we love them on top of cool, creamy ricotta cheese with a spoonful of marinara, fresh basil, and lots of grated Parmesan. A hearty appetizer or even a filling dinner entrée. These are the best meatballs ever!
