Winter strips the leaves from
around us, so that we may see the distant regions they
formerly concealed.~ Jean Paul

My goal in my life is to be as wonderful as my dog thinks I am!

Oh Ducky....that Italian thing is so true. My DD wanted my meatball recipe....I had no clue the amounts I put in. I had to have her watch me because I never measure anything....I just dump in the amount I feel looks good. We attempted to measure, but that just threw me off!!

Love that foots! Isn't it amazing how much our animals adore us?? It's so very simple for them.

2nd....I have given mine to so many peope, I finally decided to pay attention to what I did when I made it......you can PM me if you want, and I will give it to you.....

Slow.......I know a lot of people (all italian) who put their meat in the gravy[ raw.........

Know what I think is a secret to good gravy too....the right pot.....I don't think Teflon, or non-stick pots cook the gravy as good........I say use stainless steel,or a good alumminum soup pot..........just not Teflon...

I also put 1 onion in my gravy to cut down on th acid in the tomato......

I think your meat matters.....beef, pork, vea for meatballs......a piece of pork for the gravy, and sausage........if not all of that, at least 2........to get great flavor for gravy out of just meatballs, you need a lot of meatball...........

I love to eat the meatballs fried....nothing better then that with a good tomato salad with onions and olive oil........whip up a big bowl of mashed potatoes, and man you got a meal..............yum.........and yes you have to put imported Locateli in your meatballs......and they need at least 2/3 eggs to a lb of meat.......otherwise they wil be sawdust balls..............dry as hell............

So anyone want the entire receipe........PM me.........

Absolutely! I will put you to work!! hahaha

I can still remember our wonderful Italian neighbor calling her kids in for the night (all in one breath), "Roger, Billy, Monica, Betty, Debbie, Theresa, Denise and Dominic, time to get ready for bed!"
