    Spaghetti and Meatball Bowls

    We will quite often have leftover spaghetti when I accidentally make too much (happens too frequently).  I will usually just heat and serve for lunch the next day. This week, after enjoying our spaghetti and meatball dinner, these little bowls dawned on me. I had seen meatball sliders made in a video on Facebook. I knew adding the spaghetti into the little bowls would be perfect. I served them along side of a little garden salad.

    I added a little bit of spaghetti and a meatball into each garlic bread bowl and then topped with some mozzarella. The bowls are actually just basic rolls purchased from the bakery at the grocery. The perfect blend of bread, pasta and meat.

    After making these little bowls, I realized they would make for a great appetizer at our next get together. Little handheld spaghetti and meatballs, lol. My kiddos even thought they were a neat little idea.
