  • 1 can of crushed tomatoes

    blank

    1. Mix the ingredients in a bowl, then roll the meat into golf ball-sized meatballs

    2. Braise the meatballs on medium-high heat in a saucepan until crispy on all sides. Remove from heat and set aside (finish cooking in the tomato sauce later)

    1. Use the same saucepan as the meatballs. Reduce heat to medium, add some EVOO and the onions.

    2. Cook until translucent. Add a bit of water to release the fond from the meatballs if needed.

    3. Add the crushed tomatoes and Nonna’s Italian FLAVRBOMBS.

    4. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.

    5. Add the meatballs (and any juice from the meat) to the sauce and cook until done – about 20 minutes.
