Meatballs I always do in bulk and freeze some. It’s easy to break a few out for quick spaghetti and you don’t lose much quality if you use them within a couple of months.
I had actually bought a huge bulk bag of meatballs from Costco about a month ago, before i ever heard the term coronavirus.. I’ve already gone through about half the bag, so i have plenty left in case of food shortages and/or cant leave the house.. i hope i dont have to resort to that though, because the problem , as with most food that i ever buy from Costco- is that the portions are so huge that by the time I finish whatever it is, i’m usually sick of it because it’s just too much, and then i never want to eat that particular product ever again.. i was actually about to throw the rest of the meatballs out before this virus came along, so i’m holding onto them for now... also have a bunch of trail mix and some string cheese if things get really bad.
