O T S Chunky Red Sauce and Meatballs

"OTS means Off The Shelf, so I used pre-cooked frozen Meatballs available at any grocery store. Of course, you could make your own. The spices are my choice and a good place to start, but once again let me say Cooking is a Creative Sport. Serve over your favorite pasta, and add cheese toppings if you wish. The wine is important because it brings out hidden flavors in the tomatoes. This recipe can be doubled, or even beyond and cooked overnight in a Crock-Pot Slow Cooker."

  1. Talk about easy and quick. Love this recipe. I made these quite some time ago and forgot to submit a review. I just found the recipe now with my 'notes' on it. I used recipe #32384 for the meatballs and baked them in the oven for about 15 minutes before adding them to the sauce. Served it with spaghetti, Caesar salad and thick slices of crusty bread with recipe #190648 on it and toasted.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Some of you know me as Brother William. No, I am not really a Monk, but I have grown to enjoy my simple and solo lifestyle. My love for humanity is based on fellowship rather than sensuality. I PROMISE that I will never share a recipe unless I have tasted the food. Most of the recipes are mine, but I have included a few classics, and some recipes that were written by very creative people, that are just so good that I had to share. From time to time I have found recipes with my name on them in print magazines, but they are always altered in some way by the publisher. So there is no reason why you should not add your own personal touch. If you leave this page with just one thought, I hope that it would be that Cooking is a Creative Sport. I grew up in Glenview Illinois, just north of Chicago. My Mother loved those little exotic cookbooks, that were sold as a weekly series in grocery stores in the 1950's. I was taught to eat whatever was put on my plate so I ate food from a different culture every week. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be Mediterranean. After leaving my Mother's table, I have lived and enjoyed eating in Colorado, Missouri, Montana and Nebraska, before settling in Saint Cloud, Minnesota in 1975. After a 30 year marriage with mixed reviews, I am now pleasantly single again, and plan to stay that way. Up until recently, I had occupied my evenings just talking with people and sometimes sharing recipes, while soliciting donations for Non-Profit Organizations. Yes .. that's right, for over 20 years, I was a Telemarketer. The perfect job for a Taurus. I enjoy reading cook books the same way most people read novels,and I am still improving my skills in the art of Solo Cooking. However; my true passion will always be sharing my favorite recipes with all of you.
