OTS means Off The Shelf, so I used pre-cooked frozen Meatballs available at any grocery store. Of course, you could make your own. The spices are my choice and a good place to start, but once again let me say Cooking is a Creative Sport. Serve over your favorite pasta, and add cheese toppings if you wish. The wine is important because it brings out hidden flavors in the tomatoes. This recipe can be doubled, or even beyond and cooked overnight in a Crock-Pot Slow Cooker. Ingredients:
1/2 cup onion, diced |
1/2 cup bell pepper, diced |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 teaspoon olive oil |
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can stewed tomatoes |
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce |
1/2 cup red wine |
8 frozen meatballs |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon oregano |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
Directions:
1. Saute the onion in the butter and oil in the bottom of a medium sized sauce pan.
2. When the onions are translucent, add the rest of the ingredients and simmer for 20 minutes.
3. Serve over cooked pasta.
