My Mom's Spaghetti and Meatballs!


If you think of "Mom's Spaghetti" you probably think "God, I bet it tastes delicious like my mom's spaghetti!".  Well you're wrong.  My mom's spaghetti is terrible.  First of all, she purchases the cheapest noodles, sauce, and only uses salt and pepper for spice.  Where's the parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme?  It's still at the damned store, that's where it's at!

Here's the recipe.

1.  Make sure to put the noodles in the water before it starts boiling so it all sticks together and gets all shitty.

2.  Put the tomato sauce in a separate bowl but don't add any spices or heat it up or anything.  That's too much work.

3.  Get a pound of hamburger meat.  Don't buy any breadcrumbs or anything to make the meatballs with.  Here's what you do.  You take a bowl, put water in it.  put some bread in it (yeah bread).  soak the bread in the water for five minutes, then get all the excess water off of it.  Put the moist bread into a bowl with two eggs and a cup of Parmesan cheese.  Mix all of that shit together until you have a sticky mess of meat that you'll brown in a skillet to make these shitty meat balls that won't stay round.  They'll turn out like little meatloaf hamburger patty things.

4.  after the noodles are overcooked but still all stuck together, drain the water but not all of it.  put the sauce inside the pot with the noodles then dump the meatballs inside of it.

5.  stir all of that together and serve.

Taste: 4/10  the meatballs taste okay but they have a really weird texture.  It's kind of exotic. The spaghetti itself is really bland.

Effort: 4/10 Buying all the cheapest ingredients here is crucial.  Make sure not to use any good spices either.

Aesthetic Value:  8/10  it pretty much still looks like spaghetti and meatballs on the surface.



*Pro-tip:  If at all possible ask her if she can make "GREEN SPAGHETTI" instead.  That shit is bomb.  it's like pesto or something.  It's amazingly good.
