To make gluten-free spaghetti and meatballs, substitute gluten-free spaghetti, gluten-free flour, and gluten-free bread crumbs. Ensure that the soy sauce you use is gluten-free as well.
Absolutely! You can bake the meatballs at 375°F (190°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until they are cooked through and browned on the outside.
