Meatballs are a popular meat dish all over the world, and there are many different recipes that employ a wide variety of ingredients in the dough! For example, in Spain there are Albodigas, in Holland there are bitterballen, in China there are shi zi tou, in Persia there are kofta, in Sweden there are Köttbullar, and we could go on. Even in Italy there is no one way to make them, but everyone has their own recipe and tradition. It goes from remembering how grandma used to make them to experimenting with different doses and ingredients. Then there are those who prefer them with gravy and those who simply accompany them with mashed potatoes....

But have you ever thought of using Sciara Almond Pesto to make meatballs?

Almond pesto meatballs are a dish that is accessible to everyone because it is simple, yummy and children love it.

Our friend and food blogger Elena Levati of ConUnPocoDiZucchero created a recipe with Sciara Almond Pesto suggesting that it not be used exclusively in the preparation, but then brought to the table as an accompanying sauce for the meatballs themselves!

A recipe that cannot be missing on your next menu, especially if you want to impress your friends and relatives! Served as hors d'oeuvres, they will be the trump card to perfectly welcome all guests.
