0036669061480_CL_version_type_largeI have mentioned many times before that my guys LOVE meatballs. I have several homemade recipes that I make—but let’s face it, I’m busy and I don’t always have time to start from scratch. When I need a tasty option that I know will satisfy my whole family, I just grab a bag of Cooked Perfect meatballs from my freezer.

We like Cooked Perfect Meatballs because they taste like the meatballs that I make. Cooked Perfect Meatballs taste just like homemade, because they are flame broiled to sear in the natural juices and flavors. So my guys get the taste they love and I get the convenience of meatballs that are fully cooked and ready in just minutes from the microwave or stove top.

With a bag of Cooked Perfect Meatballs, I can have any of a dozen or more delicious meals prepared in no time flat! Naturally the meatballs are delicious in all kinds of pasta dishes. They are also fantastic as part of a hearty meatball sub, on a big pizza, stuffed in a calzone or on top of rice with gravy. Your meal options are unlimited, especially since you can choose from several different varieties.

I thought I would share a great recipe that’s perfect for your summer menu. You can whip up a fantastic dinner without heating up your kitchen. Grab a bag of Cooked Perfect Meatballs and fire up your grill. You can have dinner on the table in a flash. If your family is anything like mine, they will absolutely devour this meal!
