Cream cheese meatballs are the stars of this popular weeknight family friendly dinner!

Easy Vegetarian Spaghetti and Meatballs

At the beginning of every month my Grandma & I work together to come up with a list of recipes she is going to make for you. When she suggested these Cream Cheese Meatballs for Vegetarian Spaghetti & Meatballs I had never heard of them before so I was excited to give them a try!

They did not disappoint! These are absolutely fantastic, they have such great flavor! If you aren’t in the mood for spaghetti, you can serve them with Scalloped Potatoes or Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes. And Buttery Garlic Green Beans, Honey Butter Skillet Corn, or Easy Garlic Knots would go nicely with these no matter how you serve them!

What You’ll Need:

• 1/2 cup Walnuts, Chopped
• 4 oz Cream Cheese, Softened
• 1 cup Cottage Cheese
• 1 medium Onion, Chopped Finely
