Spaghetti Meat Bowls

This Trashy Spin on a Classic Dish Reinterprets an Old Recipe in a New Way

— April 21, 2015 — Lifestyle
We have seen several non-traditional ways people have been eating spaghetti and meatballs, including clever sandwiches and baked pasta poppers, but now this list also includes a meat bowl. Created by The Vulgar Chef, the Spaghetti and Meat-Bowls involve making a giant, partly hollowed out meatball and placing the spaghetti inside.

Inspired by the people celebrating 4/20 yesterday smoking bowls, this spaghetti-containing meat bowl is made with classic meatball ingredients and forming balls over tin foil. This means there is a lot of room for customization depending on your meat preferences or even if you have dietary restrictions. Then simply bake and scoop in the pasta.

Food bloggers like The Vulgar Chef have been finding ways to trash up or re-imagine classic dishes without necessarily adding new ingredients, indicating to people at home how they can be creative with less effort.
