Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute ground turkey for ground beef.

    This has become our go-to method for meatballs. I have made the full recipe (subs on garlic bread) but have pulled out this recipe to prep a big batch of meatballs to store as leftover with sauce. Someone mentioned the recipe seems impossible to maintain leftovers. I’d recommend pausing at the sauced meatballs and store that as leftover - then prepare the subs (cheese + garlic sub rolls) at time of prep.

    Really yummy. The meatball method worked super well, I thought I’d have to turn them or something, but it all worked great. I don’t know that there’s any way two people could eat all this though…serving size is two to four…?

    I made the meatballs & then used jarred sauce & garlic Naan. Just made an open face sandwich. Very good. I did add 1/2 milk to breadcrumbs for meatballs.

    This was just okay for us. I'm not going to rate the recipe because I did make quite a few changes. To save time I used some meatballs from the freezer and I used our favorite jarred sauce. I did take the time to make homemade bread. All these components were great...I made her garlic bread recipe and followed her baking directions and that is were it fell flat for us. Next time I will just make all the components separate of our favorite recipes and then put them together at the end.

    Week 3 of the cookbook challenge. Very solid. Only problem is leftovers are basically impossible. I’m guessing it’ll be a soggy mess.

    I only used turkey and the meatballs were still really moist. I serve open-face because there was no way it was going to get picked up and a meatball not roll out.

    I cooked the meatballs in the tomato sauce. They were so tender. Followed the rest of the recipe. The garlic bun added so much to the sandwich. My guys loved it. Will repeat.
