JOLLOF SPAGHETTI AND MEATBALLS.

Hello!!!
This post was inspired by my friend, who was returning from home. I had to prepare a nice meal as it's our tradition but due to unforeseen circumstances, there wasn't enough time for all the "sereren". I decided to make spaghetti because it would save me a lot of time. So in order for it not to look like an ordinary meal or like something I just concocted at the last minute, I decided to add meatballs to it. Like I said earlier, it's a tradition and as such requires something special, lol. Not an everyday kind of meal. Enjoy!!!!
