I am ashamed to admit that I sometimes crave spaghetti and meatballs out of a can. So I had to find a way to make a healthier version on my own.

Time 30m

Yield 1 1/2 cup, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (8 ounce) can condensed tomato soup
1/2 cup water
1 dash parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4-1/2 teaspoon sugar (to taste and only if needed)
12 frozen meatballs, heated
12 ounces pasta

Steps:

  • Prepare or heat meatballs. Keep warm in low heat oven. You can also use leftover meatloaf cut in chunks.
  • Cook chosen pasta according to taste; set aside.
  • If condensed, pour tomato soup and water into medium saucepan. Mix and heat slowly. Sauce will be an orange-red.
  • Add garlic and onion powder to taste.
  • Before adding sugar, taste sauce to see if it is needed (it often isn't).
  • Place a portion of pasta in a bowl or dish.
  • Add cooked meatballs as desired.
  • Pour over a serving of the sauce.
  • Garnish with more parmesan or romano cheese if desired.
