Meatballs and Spaghetti

Tuesday 14 July
Italian food for Bastille Day!  No, we're just continuing to try to clear out the freezer.  These were the 10 meatballs and tupperful of sauce we froze last February for a rainy day.  As it's been raining every day, now was the time, and it's nice to get home to an almost ready-made meal occasionally.  
We nuked the meatballs for a minute so they wouldn't be cold inside, then nestled them into the defrosted sauce, which was percolating in a deep pot.  When the spaghetti was ready, we made a nest out of it on each plate, and carefully placed the surviving meatballs on top; the rest had melted into the sauce, which was even better for them.  
Some salt and grated cheese on top, and we had a classic Italian-American meal.
