Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Heat 1 Tablespoon oil in Dutch oven.
  2. Add 1/4 cup onions and saute until soft but not brown.
  3. Add both cans of tomato products and get the sauce hot and simmering, not boiling because you don't want to scorch it.
  4. In a large bowl, mix first 11 ingredients until blended. Over-mixing will toughen the meatballs.
  5. Shape into balls about 1 1/2 inches across.
  6. Drop them into the hot sauce, making sure they are covered. Don't stir too much because you don't want to break them up.
  7. Cover and simmer one hour.
  8. Serve over pasta of your choice (I like angel hair), garnish with some extra parmesan.
