Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto Meatballs with Formaggio Pasta Sauce

The best part about meatballs is that they are not all the same. There are so many different ways you can create a great tasting meatball that is perfect for you and your tastebuds. This time around, I was feeling very cheesy. I wanted something savory, not spicy, not herb-filled, just simply a savory meatball topped with a cheesy sauce. That's where Cucina & Amore Formaggio Pasta Sauce came in handy. This recipe was inspired by the Turkey Pesto Meatballs recipe by Mom.me. I made a few tweaks based on what I had on hand and what I was craving at the moment.
