Meatball Spaghetti
Posted on May 31, 2020
A simple spaghetti dish that can be made easily on weeknights!
On workdays I feel like making a simple spaghetti dish is way easier than cooking rice with several dishes. There are no fancy ingredients but I assure that once you’ve done it right, you will like it.
