Making Aprilanne’s Grandma Rose’s MEATBALL Recipe will transform you  into an Authentic Italian chef.  Your family and guests will shower you with meatball compliments, and you will realize you don’t have to be Italian to cook like an Authentic Italian.

There are some things in life you just can’t live without -  like Grandma Rose’s Authentic Italian Meatballs and Spaghetti Sauce!

Now while I have 2 Meatball Recipes to share with you  - the first is my Grandma Rose’s Recipesince it is recipe to make the Meatballs I grew up on…which has been handed down generation after generation.  The secret ingredient in this recipe is the hot dog roles (yes you read that right!) which are soaked in milk prior to mixing in with the meat to give these meatballs that delectable softness Grandma Rose’s Meatballs are famous for.

The 2nd recipe is courtesy of Sonoma County Chef Graziano Perozzi who, graciously showed us how to “make meatballs” on California Living Prime Time – which can be viewed in the video player above for an easy step by step account of how to…make Meatballs! Graziano’s Meatballs, unlike Grandma Rose’s, don’t call for any bread or breadcrumbs.  Are they still soft and delicious?  Why not make both recipes and you be the judge…and if you are so inclined – drop us a note to let us know your vote on which recipe makes the better Meatball - Enjoy!   Aprilanne

PS:  You can substitute ground turkey for the ground beef, pork, etc., if you prefer – and no one (including you) will notice any significant difference in the overall consistency and taste!
