Spaghetti with Lamb meatballs

Yesterday was Spaghetti night. I love making it because it last for up to three days, sometime more.

Typically when I make my Spaghetti, I make a meat sauce with ground beef, but I decided to do something different this time and made Lamb meatball. So I took ground lamb, added an egg, seasoning salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, bread crumbs and percorino cheese.

After I rolled the meatballs I baked them until they were done.

For the sauce, I used two cans of Del Monte sauce, one mushroom one tomato and basil. Can sauce tends to be a little watery, so I used a trick my grandmother uses, I grated 2 large carrot (fine grated) and added them to the sauce. Additionally, I added sugar to my sauce because I tend to be a bit sensitive to the acid in the tomatoes, so sugar helps cut the acid. I also added Parmesan cheese to the sauce.

I used whole wheat spaghetti for this dish. It tastes no different, but it is a healthier choice.

The dish turned out very well.
