Hungry for some comfort food? 3T Ranch Meatballs are easy, fast and tasty!
You will need:
Meatballs: 1 pound grass fed/grass finished ground beef, 1 egg, ½ cup garlic breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, good dash of garlic and pepper seasoning, salt and pepper, 1 chopped sweet onion, 1 chopped jalapeno, ½ chopped red bell pepper.
Sauce: 1 jar of your favorite marinara sauce, 4-5 chopped cloves of garlic (the more the better for our family), 5 chopped basil leaves, salt & pepper. 

Mix all of your meatballs ingredients, onion and peppers need to be sautéed. I use one of my smallest ice cream scoops to make my meatballs the same size. I also preheat my cast iron skillet with about 2 tablespoons of oil. All of your meatballs should be nicely brown in about 8 minutes, make sure you turn them, so they have a crunchy crust all over them. Your meatballs will not be fully cooked at this point, they will need to finish up in the tasty sauce. Take all of your meatballs out of the skillet, pour your marinara in along with the basil and garlic, salt and pepper to taste. Stir for about 2 minutes and put the meatballs into the sauce. Turn your heat on low, put a lid on and let it simmer for about 10 minutes. During the 10 minutes, turn the meatballs twice. I serve the meatballs on a toasted bun with melted mozzarella on the top. We had a lot of green beans this year, so I try to sneak some veggies to my cowboys. Gotta eat healthy! Enjoy!
