My best Italian Sauce. I make big batches and freeze it in containers for those nights we want a quick meal. My son says there is no better smell then the smell of my sauce simmering on the stove. I allow them a quick taste by dipping with a slice of Italian Bread.

[email protected]This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth the effort. I made the meatballs and sauce ahead of time, and then I just reheated them when I was ready to serve. It was a great way to save time on a busy weeknight.
