  • Before I add the whole tomatoes, I take the hard stem off.
  • Just grab it and rip it off each tomato, then hand crush each tomato before adding to the sauce mixture.

  • It'll be a bit mushy, but keep mixing, if it's still mushy add alittle more breadcrumbs.
  • Shape into meatballs.
  • In lge fry pan, add your sausage links, then to same pan add meatballs.
  • Flip sausage& meatballs as they brown, don't burn them.
  • When they look cooked, drain on paper towel.
  • Then add to your pot of sauce.
  • I hope I covered everything!
  • Good Luck I hope you enjoy.
