Spaghetti and Meatballs

I made this for dinner on Tuesday. I looked at recipes online, but ended up just kind of winging it in the kitchen. I served it with a simple green salad with balsamic dressing and frozen garlic breadsticks. Blake liked it and was happy to have a good all beef meatball.

Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1 egg
2 cloves garlic, chopped
about 1/2 cup bread crumbs
about 1/2 cup shredded parmesan
splash of milk
salt and pepper
1 box Pomi marinara
fresh basil
half box thick bucatini pasta
olive oil

Directions:
Mix ground beef, egg, garlic, bread crumbs, parmesan, milk, and salt and pepper. Shape into balls and place on parchment paper. Heat olive oil in a large nonstick over medium high heat. Brown meatballs on all sides. Meanwhile, boil water for pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Remove browned meatballs from pan and drain on paper towels. Wipe out pan and add marinara sauce. Season to taste. When pasta is ready, drain and place in serving bowls. Put meatballs into marinara sauce and toss. Top pasta with meatballs and sauce and sprinkle with more parmesan cheese and fresh chopped basil.
