For extra flavor, try adding a tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese to the meatball mixture. If you don't have seasoned croutons on hand, plain breadcrumbs work well too. Just add a pinch of Italian seasoning. These meatballs are fantastic served with your favorite marinara sauce and pasta, or as sliders on mini buns. For a spicier kick, increase the amount of red pepper flakes to your liking.
