Directions:
Blend together all meatball ingredients in a large bowl , then roll into balls & brown gently in a saucepan with olive oil until golden. Set aside

In the meatball skillet,, cook onion until translucent, add garlic & cook until fragrent but not browned.

In a large Dutch oven add all the rest of sauce ingredients, then add onion& garlic mix (can use part of the canned tomatoes to deglaze the pan) & let cook on low for several hours. The longer it cooks, the better.

About an hour before serving, add the meatballs into the sauce & continue to cook. Beware that if you cook meatballs too long, they will fall apart - then you have meat sauce - lol!!!
