Spicy Meatballs are a flavorful dish rooted in Italian cuisine, often enjoyed as a hearty appetizer or a main course. Typically made from ground beef or pork, breadcrumbs, eggs, and a blend of herbs and fiery spices like red chili flakes or cayenne, these meatballs pack a robust punch. They're often simmered in a rich tomato-based sauce that complements their spiciness. Nutritionally, they are a good source of protein and iron from the meat, while the tomato sauce supplies vitamins like C and potassium. However, depending on preparation, they may also be high in saturated fat and sodium. Opting for leaner meat and low-sodium ingredients can make them a heart-healthier choice. Spicy Meatballs are versatile and can be served over pasta, with crusty bread, or paired with roasted vegetables for a balanced meal.
