Some Mods: Ground turkey instead of beef, added a small sauteed yellow onion and shredded spinach to the mixture. Absolutely loved it. Will probably make it again next year!

I made this recipe the other night. My son had been asking for the eyeball taco recipe that I made last year, and I told him I was going to do something similar, but it wouldn't be tacos. Everyone loved it. I left a few meatballs with out the cheese because my husband can't eat cheese, and it was really good.

We used a package of frozen meatballs instead of making our own. The kids loved making this dish and want to include the dish for their halloween party.
