Hey, pasta pals. Rock dinnertime with this bowl full of comfort that even the fussiest kiddos can’t resist. It’s all sweet, tomatoey, cheesy goodness. Round out the meal with a cup of veggies for a perfectly balanced plate.
- In a large pot, cook spaghetti according to package directions until al dente. Drain.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine beef and 2 tbsp dip mix. Form into 18 small meatballs.
- Arrange in a single layer in Round or Multipurpose Steamer (it’s OK if they touch). Cover; microwave on high for 3 min, or until cooked.
- When meatballs have cooked, carefully drain and discard liquid from Steamer. Add crushed tomatoes and remaining 1 tbsp dip mix; stir to coat. Sprinkle on cheese. Microwave, uncovered, on high 2 min, or until cheese has melted.
- Serve meatballs and sauce over noodles.
Use the best quality crushed tomatoes you can find. If the sauce is too acidic, add a pinch of sugar, taste it, and then add another pinch, if necessary.
Serve with 1 cup sliced veggies.
