1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 egg
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried basil

Directions
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined. Roll the mixture into 1-inch meatballs.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook until browned on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add 1 tbsp olive oil and sauté the onion and garlic until softened. Stir in the marinara sauce, Sticky Balsamic Premium Reserve Vinegar, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer.
Add the meatballs back into the skillet, coating them in the sauce. Cover and let simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through.
Serve the meatballs and sauce over cooked spaghetti. Garnish with fresh basil leaves, a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and some Sticky Balsamic Pearls
