SO glad I converted and tried this recipe. Definetly worth a try! The meatballs were delicate, soft, and delicious and the sauce was a perfect match. Served this with angel hair pasta and made mini meatballs. Everyone absolutly loved it. I've made this more than once and added a 8 oz. container of herbed cheese spread (like boursin or alouette) I had in the refrigerator the second time and it was cheesy and delicious. Thanks for a great recipe.

good, really good. just i made some changes like i had readymade chicken balls in my freezer, i used those. i added beef stock and also added in a dash of basil, fresh corriander and also little bit of tomato paste. uuummmmm, sooooo tasty, it turned out really cool. yeah, i just skipped the bacon as we cant eat that but still it was a great recipe :)
