This recipe brings back fond memories of our traditional Sunday Italian dinner at my grandmother’s house when I was a child. Though Grandma didn’t make gluten free spaghetti and meatballs, this recipe tastes just the same. All you need is good tasting gluten free bread crumbs (there are some bad ones out there) or gluten free oat flour. You can make this recipe to serve a crowd, or freeze most of it for future use. I usually make it ahead of time and freeze it in several different size contains: individual, two servings, four servings and one large one. Then I am prepared for unexpected guests or when I just don’t have the time to cook for my hubby. I’m allergic to tomatoes, but my guests and husband really enjoy this recipe, and I hope you do, as well.

Tips
When I substitute meatballs for the sausage, beef stew meat, and ground beef in the spaghetti sauce, I do not use a lean cut of ground beef. The extra fat provides flavor. However, note that your meatballs will shrink the more fat they contain, therefore, make them a bit larger.
I usually keep the ground beef in the spaghetti sauce, even when making meatballs. You can either make it marinara (without meat) or with.

Which GF breadcrumbs are good and which to avoid?
I recently became a fan of Trader Joe's corn pasta. it really tastes...real and even my husband who can eat wheat, gladly eats the corn noodles. Their brown rice noodles... we both don't enjoy.
Gem,
I prefer to not bad mouth any particular brands online, but I'll email you on the one that turned me off of purchasing any commercial brands. I make my own.
I love corn pasta, but when it contains GMO it makes me bloated, and sometimes itchy. That's why I use Bob's Red Mill cornstarch. It's non-GMO. I had Heartland brand corn pasta and it was amazing! Just like you said, it tastes very close to gluten pasta. I only use Trader Joe's penne brown rice pasta. When I can find it, I get their organic brand.
Meanwhile, look for my email. I will send it now.
