Homemade Spaghetti Sauce & Meatballs


Sauce:

1/2 onion diced
3 cloves garlic diced
extra virgin olive oil
2 cans Hunts Tomato Sauce
2 cups water
1 tsp sugar
salt & pepper

In a pan, saute onion and garlic and oil.  Add water, tomato sauce, salt and pepper (to taste) and sugar.  Cook for 1 hour on low with lid half on and half off.  Stir occasionally.

Meatballs:

1-2 lbs ground beef or turkey
1/2 C breadcrumbs
1/2 C parmesan cheese
olive oil

Mix all ingredients together and make into small balls.  Add a little oil to a saute pan and heat until thoroughly cooked.

Add spaghetti sauce to some whole wheat pasta and top with meatballs.  Thanks Jess!

This recipe is definitely next on the list when I have some minced beef.
