Hello again...Well here is that delicious recipe I promised using the Original bread crumbs from Gillian's Foods. Just to let you know I LOVE homemade sauce, while my husband prefers his from a jar, go figure!!! Anyway, I compromised and used products to please us both as you will see in the recipe that follows. ( I hope you enjoy )
Spaghetti Sauce and Meatballs:
1 lb extra lean ground beef
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup (Gillian's GF Original) bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated Romano cheese
1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
1 tsp dried basil
2 T extra virgin olive oil
1- 28 oz can crushed tomatoes
1-23 oz jar GF mushroom spaghetti sauce
(or your favorite flavor)
3 cups water
1 lb GF spaghetti (I used Penne)
In a large bowl combine beef, onion, bread crumbs, cheese, Italian seasoning and basil. Use your hands to mix, mixture will be slightly dry. Scoop out enough mixture, about 2 T each, and form into balls. I used a cookie scoop for this step, which makes it a little easier and you get more uniform sized meatballs.
In a large saucepan heat the 2 T of oil over a med-high heat. Cook the meatballs, turning often, until all sides are browned. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, pasta sauce and 3 cups of water, then bring to a boil. Cover the pan leaving the lid slightly ajar, reduce the heat to a low simmer and cook for 3 hours, stirring occasionally until meatballs are thoroughly cooked and flavors are blended..
Cook pasta according to directions. Drain, add sauce and enjoy!
