1 small onion grated

pasta of your choice, enough to serve number of people around the table

Mix the first ten ingredients together with your hands.  Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.  Form golf ball size meatballs and place close together on baking sheet. Bake in 400-degree oven for 15 minutes. For crock pot method: Pour sauce into crock pot and add cooked meatballs. Cover with lid and turn to low and allow to simmer for 4-6 hours. For oven method: Pour sauce into a large casserole and add cooked meatballs. Cover and bake in 350-degree oven for one hour.  To freeze: You can freeze the meatballs either raw or cooked. Place either way onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Place in freezer. Once frozen remove and store in freezer bags. This way you can take out as many as you like. You can also freeze the baked meatballs in the sauce right in the casserole dish. To serve place frozen casserole in refrigerator the night before. It will be thawed and ready to pop into the oven an hour before supper time. This will yield approximately 25 meatballs.
