Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground hamburger, 1 egg, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, and seasonings. Mix until just combined.
  2. Roll the meat mixture into small, uniform meatballs and set aside on a plate.
  3. In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, combine tomato juice, tomato paste, oregano, basil, and any additional seasonings. Stir well to dissolve the paste.
  4. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Carefully add the meatballs to the sauce.
  5. Boil medium-spiced Italian sausage links in a separate pot of water until cooked through. Drain and cut into bite-sized pieces.
  6. Add the sliced sausage to the saucepan with the meatballs and sauce.
  7. Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for 20-30 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and the meatballs are cooked through.
  8. Serve hot over spaghetti or your favorite pasta.
