Tasty. I used 1 lbs. ground beef, 1/2 lbs. Italian sausages and added fresh minced thyme, fresh minced rosemary and fresh minced oregano, I use bread stuffing 1/2 cup and basil fresh with 2 minced cloves of garlic and 1/2 chopped minced onion, salt and pepper to taste. I browned these in a skillet till cooked. In my other pot I had marinara sauce added 1 tbls. brown sugar fresh basil sea salt & pepper to taste. When the meatballs were cooked I placed them in the sauce and put to simmer. As a bed for the meatballs I thinly sliced zucchini with red peppers and used a bit of juice from the meatballs to cook them. I placed a bed of peppers sprinkled with parmesan cheese the meatballs in sauce and then some shredded mozerella cheese on a warmed sliced french roll. There was nothing left after dinner.
