Meatball Sauce Ideas

The imagination is ready to be let loose on the humble meatball.  Having established your meatball making base, be that Italian Meatballs or Swedish Meatballs, you are ready to whip up the perfect Meatball Sauce.

I have taken the liberty to outline some ideas and posted some photos to stimulate your own Meatball Sauce inspirations.  There are no hard and fast rules.  I have seen orange glazed meatball sauce but my own discerning taste-buds could not find the room on these pages to depict such attack on the little old meatball!!  Never mind.

And of course one must start thinking mash potato, boiled potatoes, boiled or fried rice, all sorts of salads and dressings and so much more that the only remaining restriction is the mind and good taste.  Enjoy the journey!

Italian Meatball Sauce

The sauce ingredients are found below.  Heat the olive oil in the same meatball cooking pan.  Add the onion and sauté over medium heat until translucent for about 5 to 10 minutes.  Toss in the garlic and cook for another minute. Pour in the wine and cook on high heat, scraping up all the brown bits in the pan, until almost all the liquid evaporates in about 3 minutes.  Stir in the tomatoes, parsley, salt, and pepper.

1 tablespoon good olive oil
1 cup chopped yellow onion (1 onion)
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
1/2 cup good red wine, such as Chianti
1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes, or plum tomatoes in puree, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 can low fat cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
1 (4 oz.) can mushrooms with liquid
