At last a recipe that doesn't call for cream of soup!! My whole family loved this. I sauted the meatballs in olive oil instead of butter. I cooked fetticini and placed it in the bottom of a casserole dish. Topped the cooked noodles with the cooked meatballs. Poured the cooking broth into my 4 cup "fat separator" and return the fat-free broth to the saute pan. The flavor for the sauce is on the bottom of the pan!! Added fat-free evaporated milk (doubled the broth, milk, flour, and water). Cooked until slightly thick. I strained the sauce to remove darkened bits of meat and onions, and pured over meatballs and noodles. Then my husband called to say that he had to substitute for someone at a business dinner, so I put the whole thing in the fridge for the next night. The noodles were infused with the extra sauce and all flavors were well blended. Wonderful!! I will always make this one day ahead. It heated wonderfully in the microwave on a defrost setting as I did not want the edges to cook before the center was warm. A very healthy creamy sauce! Thanks for a new "keeper" at our house!
Note: I ignored the second mention of 1 cup of evaporated milk. Like another reviewer, I think it is a misprint as the directions did not give mention to it.
