Notes

  • If you prefer not to make Homemade Italian Sausage, the store-bought sausage will work fine.
  • The fresh breadcrumbs help add moisture to the meatballs and bind everything together much better than dry breadcrumbs. If you don't want to make homemade bread, buy a loaf from the store and make your crumbs.
