You’re going to love how easy it is to make Mini Meatball Muffins, check it out:

  • Prepare a mini muffin pan by spraying 24 of the muffin cups with cooking spray and set aside for later.
  • Remove dough from container, roll it out, and press into muffin pan.  Cut off extra dough so it fits on the bottom and up the sides of the muffin pan.
  • Mix the spaghetti sauce and cream cheese together.  You can add a little mozzarella cheese to the mixture if you like.  I normally add it, but I forgot this time so I just sprinkled a little on top.

Last weekend we hosted a fulfilled evening with friends, family and football.  I purchased Mozzarella Sticks, Italian Style Meatballs, Mozzarella Bits, Jalapeno Poppers, and Pepperoni Pizza Roll-Ups and fresh grapes from Walmart because I didn’t want to spend the whole day cooking but wanted my guest to have plenty tasty appetizers while they watched the games.

Those meatball muffins would be the perfect appetizer….they’ve got all my favorite ingredients. I use these meatballs all the time for meatball subs and spaghetti, but I never would have thought of this and this is probably going to be my new favorite way. So simple, so good looking, and I’m betting…so good.
