Steps:
- To make the sauce:.
- In a medium saucepan of water, boil the tomatoes until they either split or float.
- Add them to a blender/food processor or use a hand blender (what I used).
- When the tomatoes are liquified, add the oregano, basil, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper and salt.
- Mix thoroughly.
- Cover and let sit overnight. This will allow the flavors to meld more.

- Place sauce in a saucepan over medium heat.
- Mince the chicken.
- Grind the breadstick.
- Add the chicken, ground breadstick, oregano, basil, garlic salt, onion powder and pepper into a bowl.
- Mix well.
- Form the chicken mixture into small, grape sized meatballs and drop into the warming sauce.
- Cook in the sauce for 30 minutes.
