Preparation

Step 1

Mix until well blended. Shape into medium-sized balls. Place in spaghetti sauce that has simmered for 1/2 hour. Can brown meatballs first, if you wish. To brown, put in roaster at 350 degree oven for 25 minutes. Let meatballs simmer in sauce for 1/2 hour or until done. The longer they simmer in the sauce the better they will taste.
