    I don’t eat red meat so I’ll try this with ground turkey instead. sporkme: Spinach and Ricotta Cannelloni and Meatballs Italian food isn’t all that hard to make, it’s just about using the right ingredients.  This didn’t take terribly long to put together, and a lot can be done ahead of time and then frozen for later, so you can whip up a pretty satisfying dinner when you don’t seem to have time. Ingredients (meatballs): 1 kilo ground beef 3 garlic cloves, chopped finely 3 eggs 1/2 cup breadcrumbs Salt, pepper, and fresh sage Mix the above, form balls, and bake at 200C / 375F for 20 minutes, flip over, and then bake for 10 minutes until nice and brown. Ingredients (quick sauce): 2 large cans of diced tomatoes 1 onion, diced 100g butter fresh chopped sage salt and pepper about 200g pork, bone in 2 bay leaves Melt butter, stir in onions and then add the pork and brown.  Add the sage and cook for about 2 minutes before adding the rest of the ingredients.  If you’re cooking it for a while, add a bit of water so there’s something to boil out while the meat infuses with the sauce.  Remove pork bone and bay leaves before using. Ingredients (cannelloni): 10 cannelloni shells Half kilo ricotta Package of baby spinach, steamed and drained 1 egg Dash of nutmeg Salt and pepper Mix everything but the pasta and then pipe into the cannelloni shells.  Put in a baking dish, add meatballs and then cover everything with sauce.  Bake for about 30 minutes, adding grated parmesan for the last 10, at 200C / 375F.

    Spinach and Ricotta Cannelloni and Meatballs

    Italian food isn’t all that hard to make, it’s just about using the right ingredients.  This didn’t take terribly long to put together, and a lot can be done ahead of time and then frozen for later, so you can whip up a pretty satisfying dinner when you don’t seem to have time.

    Ingredients (meatballs):

    • 1 kilo ground beef
    • 3 garlic cloves, chopped finely
    • 3 eggs
    • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
    • Salt, pepper, and fresh sage

    Mix the above, form balls, and bake at 200C / 375F for 20 minutes, flip over, and then bake for 10 minutes until nice and brown.

    Ingredients (quick sauce):

    • 2 large cans of diced tomatoes
    • 1 onion, diced
    • 100g butter
    • fresh chopped sage
    • salt and pepper
    • about 200g pork, bone in
    • 2 bay leaves

    Melt butter, stir in onions and then add the pork and brown.  Add the sage and cook for about 2 minutes before adding the rest of the ingredients.  If you’re cooking it for a while, add a bit of water so there’s something to boil out while the meat infuses with the sauce.  Remove pork bone and bay leaves before using.

    Ingredients (cannelloni):

    • 10 cannelloni shells
    • Half kilo ricotta
    • Package of baby spinach, steamed and drained
    • 1 egg
    • Dash of nutmeg
    • Salt and pepper

    Mix everything but the pasta and then pipe into the cannelloni shells.  Put in a baking dish, add meatballs and then cover everything with sauce.  Bake for about 30 minutes, adding grated parmesan for the last 10, at 200C / 375F.
