A Meatball Recipe You Can Make Ahead and Freeze

Having a batch of good meatballs in the freezer feels like a small superpower. Dinner in 15 minutes. A quick pasta sauce that tastes like you spent the afternoon on it. A crowd-pleasing appetizer pulled together on short notice. This recipe is designed specifically to be made ahead – the texture holds up well through freezing and reheating, the flavor is versatile enough to work in Italian-style tomato sauce, Swedish-style cream sauce, or as a standalone dish, and the process is efficient enough that making a double batch takes almost no extra effort.
