[quote=Anonymous]This is op, here is my meatball recipie from tonight

3 lbs ground beef
In a mixing bowl I put 3 eggs, 1/2 cup parm cheese, palm full of salt, palm full of pepper, 2 cubes of the frozen garlic you get at trader Joe's, 1 cube if the frozen basil (same brand as garlic) 1/2 cup milk, 1 cup of plain bread crumbs
* I almost never have bread crumbs on hand, I have used crushed Cheerios, rice checks or Rice Krispies and it turns out the same as bread crumbs lol

I mix everything but the beef in a bowl, then add the beef and mix well with my hands. Then I roll into balls and just drop into simmering sauce, I don't bother baking or frying before

Tonight this is how I made sauce
Sautéed in bottom of large pan in olive oil
I package sliced mushrooms
3 mixed color bell peppers
1/3 package baby carrots
1 onion cut up
2 garlic cubes 2 basil cubes

After about 10 min I added
2 large cans of tomato sauce
2 large cans of whole tomatoes in sauce
Ground pepper, I only add salt at the end if it needs

I blended it with a stick blender in the pan
Simmered for 20 min while I made the meatballs and then simmered with meatballs for another 20 min

It sounds complicated I guess written out but the whole thing from start to finish only takes an hour, I freeze the leftover sauce once the meatballs are gone and use it for pasta or lasagna [/quote]
