  • handful panko crumbs or other

Optional add-ins

Directions

Prepare the Meatballs

1.

Combine sauce ingredients and bring to a simmer on a low flame (or your kitchen will be redecorated with tomato splatters!) Simmer for a few minutes; you may need to cover the pot.

2.

While the sauce is coming together, combine meatballs ingredients and very lightly mix together; don’t overmix or you won’t have soft meatballs.

3.

After sauce has simmered for a few minutes, incorporate add-ins and simmer a few minutes more.

4.

Gently form small/medium meatballs and add to the sauce.

5.

Cook covered, on a low simmer for approximately 60 minutes.

Notes:

Serve alone, with rice, pasta, spaghetti squash, shirataki noodle.
Spicy profile: serve w/red pepper flakes.
Freezer friendly, flavors deepen!
But you ain’t gonna have any left!
