Whole Tomatoes - 2 24oz cans
Pour Olive Oil in the bottom of LARGE pot, enough to cover bottom (about
1/4 inch deep), add onions, garlic and bell pepper. Lightly brown in
oil. Add all tomato stuff, stir well, add all other ingredients, stir well.
add a couple cans of water (approx 24 oz's). Let simmer at least 5
hours (the longer it cooks the better it is!)

Amazing meatballs and sauce!, August 13, 2006 - 06:49 PM
Reviewer: Magda S. from Edmonton Alberta Canada
Tastes absolutely delicious! Worth making again and again! Just a little tip - receipe as-is makes enough to feed a small army so either cut the recipe or freeze the majority. It does freeze well!
