Growing up in an Italian household has it’s challenges the first being, learning how to make a GREAT meatball. Today I adapted my Grandmother’s recipe to an Air Fryer Quick & Easy Meatball Recipe.

Traditionally the Italian meatballs are fried and then added to the sauce. But, that is done in a lot of oil. The air fryer meatballs are so much healthier since they don’t have any added oil.. But, you still get the same great flavor. This will make for a great quick and easy meal. This is also a great recipe to make and freeze. As meatballs stay wonderfully frozen, then just toss them into the air fryer to reheat, and add some sauce, you will have an Air Fryer meatball sub in less time, than preheating your oven!
