My Favorite Spaghetti and Meatballs image

I have tried a couple of recipes on zaar but I keep going back to my own. I got the sauce recipe from a friend of my moms and the meatball recipe is my own adaptation from a recipe on a Muellers box. Add your favorite pasta and you have a meal.

Time 1h30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 -3 tablespoons garlic, minced
1 small onion (diced small)
2 (28 ounce) cans tomatoes (ground and peeled-I use Pastene Kitchen Ready)
2 (12 ounce) cans tomato paste
48 ounces water (2 cans water for each can tomato paste)
1 teaspoon sugar
salt and pepper
olive oil
1 1/4 lbs ground beef
3/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 cup milk
1 egg (slightly beaten)
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 tablespoon onion powder (real onion can be used but my family doesn't like finding onions in their meatballs, go figure)
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons parsley flakes

Steps:

  • Sauce:.
  • Cover bottom of large pan with olive oil.
  • Add garlic and onion and heat on low until tender.
  • Add Pastene tomatoes, tomato paste, water, sugar, salt and pepper.
  • Simmer for at least 1 hour, stirring often.
  • Meatballs:.
  • In large bowl, mix together all the ingredients.
  • Shape into balls (makes about 30).
  • Meatball cooking directions:.
  • Bake in oven at 350, turning occasionally until the meatballs are brown on the outside.
  • Add the meatballs to sauce and simmer for at least 30 minutes.
  • This cooking method is also great for making the meatballs ahead of time. They can be frozen and dropped into sauce when you're ready.

I followed the recipe exactly and the meatballs turned out great. The sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste, but that's easily fixed.
