We like to have this with homemade garlic bread and a cooked green vegetable.

I generally like spaghetti and meatballs, but this recipe is definitely the best I've had! The sauce combination is slightly sweet and not bitter, complementing the meatballs and pasta nicely. My rating: 9/10. With garlic bread, it's a 10/10. ;)
