About Meatballs with cheese and tomato sauce
Meatballs with cheese and tomato sauce is a hearty dish that combines savory beef or pork meatballs with rich tomato sauce and melted cheese for a comforting and flavorful experience. A staple in Italian-American cuisine, this dish often features ingredients like ground meat seasoned with garlic, breadcrumbs, and herbs, nestled in a sauce made with ripe tomatoes, olive oil, onions, and spices, then topped generously with mozzarella or Parmesan cheese. High in protein from the meat and cheese, the dish provides essential nutrients like calcium and iron. The tomato sauce offers vitamins A and C, along with antioxidants like lycopene. However, it can be high in saturated fat and sodium, depending on the preparation. For a healthier version, choose lean meats, reduce cheese portions, and opt for homemade tomato sauce without added sugar or salt. Served on its own or over pasta, it’s a beloved comfort food with customizable options.
