My DD wanted some meatballs with mashed potatoes and cream corn. So I chose this recipe to try. She loved them and so did I. Very tasty meatballs and very quick to put together. I had used a red pepper and not green only because of preference. I simmered the peppers with the sauce for the whole time of 15 minutes, then added meatballs for another 10 minutes on low simmer. A very delicious sauce that is not overly sweet. I will make this again. Thanks for your recipe taillights.
