My friend Liz made these meatballs for me and they're awesome! The sauce is so sweet and delicious. Liz said she often triples the meat and doubles the sauce and that they freeze and reheat beautifully. She often makes this dish for a new neighbor, a family that just had a new baby etc.
Ingredients:
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1/2 cup ketchup
1 cup brown sugar
salt & pepper
1 onion, chopped
1/4 teaspoon lemon juice
1 lb ground round
1 egg
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
salt
garlic powder
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. Have a glass casserole dish ready.
3. Combine sauce ingredients in a sauce pan and boil for 5 minutes.
4. Combine meatball ingredients and shape into small meatballs.
