Parmesan Meatballs are a savory blend of Italian-inspired flavors, combining ground meat—typically beef or pork—with Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic, onion, eggs, and a mix of herbs like parsley and oregano. Often baked, these meatballs pair well with marinara sauce and pasta or can be enjoyed on their own as a high-protein snack. The Parmesan cheese adds a rich, nutty flavor, while the herbs enhance its aromatic profile. Nutritionally, they offer a good source of protein and essential vitamins like B12 from the meat. However, they can be high in saturated fat and sodium, depending on the amount of cheese and breadcrumbs used. Baking instead of frying can help reduce added fats, while using lean meat provides a healthier version. Popular in Italian-American cuisine, Parmesan Meatballs are a comforting dish with robust flavors and balanced textures that make them a widely loved classic.
