- Blend bread crumbs into meat mixture. Slowly add the water 1/2 cup at a time. The mixture should be very moist but still hold its shape when rolled into meatballs. NOTE: *** Only use enough water to get moist consistency ***
- Shape into 24 meatballs.
- Place the extra virgin olive oil, tomato juice, tomato paste in a large 9 x 13 oven pan. Stir to make a sauce.
- Place meatballs in pan and cover. NOTE: *** You will want to use 2 pans so meatballs have room and not touching each other *** Cook 2 hour at 250 degrees or until done. Serve with warmed crusty bread and sauce and napkins https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/bread/other-bread/the-best-crusty-bread-dutch-oven.html?p=7 *** They Freeze Well Too *** Enjoy !
- Enro Gay's Version for a Family Gathering with her Gravy...
- Enro Gay... " Hello, Bob... the meatballs were a huge success. I reduced the recipe by using 4 pounds meat (2 ground beef, 1 veal and 1 pork sausage) and used dry Italian bread crumbs in place of day-old bread (and adjusting other ingredient amounts to match). Since these were made for homemade meatball subs, I made them much smaller and cooked them a short time in the oven before transferring to my slow cooker. "
- " I did not use your "gravy" as outlined above, but used this instead: "
- Small onion, fine chopped Small green pepper, fine chopped 2 cloves garlic, fine chopped 3 Tbsp EVOO 6 ounce tomato paste 1/4 cup dry red wine 3/4 cup chicken broth 2-15 ounce cans tomato sauce 1 tsp dried oregano 3/4 tsp dried basil 1 tsp sugar Salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
- Saute onion and green pepper in EVOO for a couple minutes, add the garlic and cook another minute. Then add the tomato paste and wine, stirring for another minute or so. Then add the chicken broth, tomato sauce and spices, stirring to combine. Bring to a boil, then simmer covered for about 3 hours... YUMMY!
- " I made it the night before, then warmed in up, transferred sauce to the slow cooker and added the meatballs to simmer on low until we got ready to eat. I will make the dinner size meatballs next time and serve to my hubby with spaghetti, a favorite of his. Thanks for a wonderful meatball recipe! "
- " Absolutely... feel free! Even though the sauce and meatballs were sealed up in my locking-lid slow cooker, my mother and I could smell this during our 1.5 hour trip to see my son... just about drove us crazy! :-) "
- " Ummm.. Thank You again... it DOES have that quality!!! Lol!!! " HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY!!!!!!!

ULTRA SIMPLE PORCUPINE MEATBALLS IN TOMATO SAUCE
I looked around and all of the porcupine meatball recipes that have been posted include extra and (I think) unnecessary ingredients like Worcestershire sauce. This is the recipe my family has been using since I was a kid. They're very easy to make, taste great with ground beef or turkey, and freeze well. A couple of notes: if you use onion, chop it so it isn't only about double the size of the rice (or less). If it's too much larger it might not be as easy to form the meatballs and could be weird to bite in to. The rice you use should be uncooked Minute Rice, the kind that cooks in like 5 minutes or so.

SIMPLE THANKSGIVING TURKEY MEATBALLS
I came up with this recipe when planning a small Thanksgiving dinner for me and my sister. This incorporates familiar Thanksgiving favorites without requiring you roast a whole bird or fix a lot of stuffing. We had to come up with something that could accommodate our limited kitchen resources while providing something special for Thanksgiving. Feel free to change up the spices, adding more or less to suit your taste. Prep and cook time is approximate.

SIMPLE LOW FAT MEATBALLS.
I got this recipe from a Women's Health magazine. They suggest you add Cajun seasoning to these since they are supposed to be an appetizer. Also, their nutritional information is that these have 20 calories each, .5 fat grams, and 3 grams of protein. Not a significant source of sodium, carbs, or fiber.
