I've made these a few times using frozen meatballs and they are so good.

The meatballs were great! I sauteed the onion and then added it in. Yummy! My 3 year old ate 3 big ones. We havent done the sauce yet but I am sure that will be good too.

I used pre-packaged frozen meatballs and sauteed sliced onions and mushrooms in about 2 TBSP marsala wine. Family said it was amazing. Unfortunatly, I am sick and was unable to taste it and I am positive from what they are saying there will not be any left for me when I am able to tastes again.

I made this recipe for my classroom and it was a big hit. I substituted ground turkey for the beef and turkey stuffing mix but still used beef gravy. I added some basic adobe seasoning and black pepper to the mix. My staff took some home to her kids and they loved it as well. Making it for my own family and they are already salivating!

I have used this recipe several times, and love it! I use bread crumbs instead of the stuffing mix. Occasionally, I'll add about a tablespoon of bbq sauce to the meat mix and it gives it a nice added flavor. To save time, I once made the meatballs the night before and stored them in the fridge for the next day.

The meatballs were very good. Plenty left over to freeze. The sauce was lacking so I added cream of mushroom as suggested and it was still a little bland for our taste. Added a few dashes of an all purpose seasoning and that made it taste just right!

I used this recipe the other night but made it as a meatloaf with gravy instead of meatballs. By special request this is how I will be making meatloaf going forward. A great recipe that will definitely be made again.

Both kids (12 & 15) liked this recipe and asked for it to be made again. Used 85% lean ground beef and it was plenty moist. Also used chicken stove top instead of pork and it was delicious.

enjoyed how easy it is to make especially when you use pre-made meatballs.

I made this recipe last night. As written, except I added cream of mushroom soup for added sauce. Delicious! I'll definitely be making this again.
