We thought so too! Very good, that is! I used ground chicken, but otherwise as directed for an excellent supper. I doubled the sauce as suggested, but next time I will double that again, we do like plenty of sauce. (I used the wine). I also slightly sauteed the chopped onion before adding it to the meatballs, and, as MEP did, allowed the meatballs to warm in the sauce. Excellent! A keeper! Made in fond remembrance of HEP MEP
