This came from a dear friend of mine's mother. She makes it for her family and the grown children always ask for take home containers.
Ingredients:
28 ounces crushed tomatoes
4 cups water
1 (4 ounce) can tomato paste
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
salt, to taste
1 lb italian sausage
1 1/2 lbs ground beef
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1 dash garlic powder
salt
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
1 egg (keeps the meatballs together better tho) (optional)
Directions:
1. Brown the sausage in a medium pan.
2. Strain the tomatoes and finely crush what's left into the sauce pan.
3. Add the water and the meatballs and simmer for at least 2 hours; chill, then remove the fat as one layer.
4. Reheat and serve over your favorite pasta or on hoagie buns for meatball subs- freezes well.
