        I was disappointed with this recipe. The sauce was so soupy and I thought both the sauce and the meatballs were a little bland.

            This came out soupy for me also......it is good though, just maybe not for the meatball subs like in the picture.

              I pinned this awhile ago and finally got around to making it. And well... it was absolutely terrible. Everyone hated it. It was bland, soggy and not tasty at all. I ended up using up the leftovers by chopping up the meatballs and pan frying them with onions and topping with cheese. Absolutely terrible. A word to the wise, don't waste your ground beef on the recipe. So disappointing.

                    I fixed these yesterday, and they were a hit! I changed a few things up, I used ground turkey meat, and used 2 1/2 lbs (I have a big clan!). I also added fresh herbs (parsley, oregano, basil) to meatballs. I used 4 eggs, and eyeballed extra breadcrumbs. I also added extra garlic, and put in a little chili powder and paprika. I kept wine amount the same, and added a cup of marinara at the end of cooking. The consistency was good! I suggest playing with it a bit, you really can't mess it up! Delicious over crusty bread!

                      Meatball is a hit and miss for my kid. She enjoys what I normally do, but since I like to try other variety, it becomes a 'yes' or 'no' to her. Hope this works well cos of the cheese... she loves cheese :D
