These meatballs are a great way to use up leftover bread. I always have a few slices of bread that are about to go stale and this is a great way to use them up.

I made a few changes to the recipe and the meatballs still turned out great. I used ground turkey instead of beef and added some chopped spinach to the mixture.

The meatballs were a bit dry. I think I would have added more bread crumbs or milk to the mixture.

These meatballs were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I would have preferred them if they were made with ground turkey or chicken.

I was a bit hesitant to try these meatballs because I'm not a huge fan of fennel, but I'm so glad I did! The fennel flavor is very subtle and really adds to the overall flavor of the meatballs.

These meatballs are amazing! The combination of beef, pork, and veal makes them so moist and flavorful. The sauce is also delicious and really brings the dish together.
