Grandma Rita's Meatballs image

This is my MIL's meatballs - which she made for her family of three boys - thus the reason the meatballs were made so big! Now I make these for my three boys. One of my husband's favorite meals served with boiled potatoes. Is a fairly quick fixing/hearty meal for weeknight!
