Creating the ultimate spaghetti and meatballs is straightforward. Just follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare Meatballs: In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, parsley, minced garlic, egg, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Mix until combined.
2. Form Meatballs: Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter. Place on a baking sheet.
3. Cook Meatballs: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake meatballs for 20 minutes or until browned.
4. Make Sauce: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
5. Add Tomatoes: Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar, salt, pepper, basil, and oregano. Bring to a simmer.
6. Combine Meatballs and Sauce: Once the meatballs are cooked, add them to the sauce. Let simmer on low heat for 15-20 minutes, allowing flavors to meld.
7. Cook Spaghetti: While the sauce simmers, cook spaghetti according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
8. Combine Spaghetti and Sauce: Toss cooked spaghetti with the meatball sauce until evenly coated.
9. Serve: Plate the spaghetti and meatballs, garnishing with extra Parmesan and parsley if desired.

With these steps, you’ll create an incredible dish that everyone will love!
