Recipe Instructions

MEATBALLS: Mix all ingredients for "Meatballs". Form into 1" balls. Cook in a single layer in a 350F oven for about 20-30 minutes or until browned. Remove and drain.

Sauce: Cook onion in oil until tender. Add remaining ingredients. Simmer 10 minutes. Place meatballs in a crock pot. Pour sauce over and keep warm.

Can be made a day or so ahead, refrigerated in the crock, and reheated. The sauce doesn't make a lot, just enough to coat the balls.
