Meatball Casserole image

The mini meatballs in this dish have lots of flavor and give you plenty per serving. If you're cooking for more than two, simply double the recipe and bake in an 8-in. x 8-in. baking dish. Cook until cheese is nice and melted. Anu Riley - Boise, Idaho

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices to the sauce and it was much better.

This casserole was a hit with my family! The meatballs were moist and flavorful, and the sauce was rich and cheesy. I will definitely be making this again.
