- Meatballs:
- Prepare meatballs by combining all ingredients except oil. Shape into about 48 small meatballs and brown in oil. Add meatballs to sauce and simmer 30 min., stirring occasionally. If not making the meatballs, just brown the beef with all the ingredients and dump the mixture into the sauce.
- Filling:
- Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions.
