Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 pound spaghetti
  • 1 jar pasta sauce `
  • 16 pre-cooked meatballs
  • 8 slices provolone cheese cut into circles
  • 8 black olives sliced in half

Instructions

  • Using a cookie cutter, cut circles out of the provolone slices. Set aside.
  • Prepare the meatballs according to the package directions.
  • Prepare the pasta sauce according to the package directions.
  • Boil the spaghetti according to the package directions. Drain and add to the sauce. Stir to combine.
  • Make piles of spaghetti on each plate or serving platter. Ladle an extra spoonful of sauce onto each mound of spaghetti. Place a meatball on top of the sauce, followed by the circular piece of cheese to create the white part of the eye.
  • Top each meatball with a black olive slice.

Notes

  • You can make your own homemade meatballs if you prefer. Try to make them slightly smaller than usual, and the same size for even cooking and presentation.
  • Mozzarella cheese is a good substitute for the provolone. And you can swap out the black olives for green olives if that's all you have.
