4. Lightly sprinkle the meatballs with dried parsley, basil, and oregano.
5. Place the meatballs on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until fully cooked through and slightly browned.
Cooking the Pasta:
1. Bring a pot of salted water to a rolling boil.
2. Add the pasta and cook for 8-10 minutes, depending on your texture preference (al dente or softer).
3. Drain the pasta and set it aside.
Simmering the Marinara Sauce:
1. In a saucepan, simmer 1 cup of marinara sauce over low heat.
3. Once the pasta is cooked and drained, toss it in the simmering marinara sauce until well-coated.

2. Arrange the meatballs on top of the pasta.
3. Garnish with chopped parsley and optional shredded cheese if desired.
4. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Tips for Perfect Results:
• Meatballs: Ensure the meatballs are of equal size to cook evenly.
• Pasta: Stir the pasta occasionally during cooking to prevent it from sticking together.
• Sauce: Simmering the pasta in the sauce allows it to absorb more flavor.
