Nothing to say except -- DELICIOUS. I cut the sugar down to 1/4 cup because I didn't want it quite so sweet. The dish was licked clean at Thanksgiving. Even those that thought they didn't like sweet potatoes loved it.

This meatball recipe is fantastic! For those that have reviewed my recipe reviews, I double or triple the garlic which I did for this recipe. Everything else, I followed to a T and then added 2 eggs which my Italian family has always done which bulks up the meatball a bit while baking. I then quickly put together a meat sauce with 1 Tbsp of extra virgin olive oil, 1 Tbsp of garlic, 1/2 cup of onions, salt and pepper to taste (let these cook until the onion has lost its whiteness), 1 C of organic ground beef (cook until brown), then added 1 24 oz can of stewed/chopped tomatoes, 4 fresh tomatoes in which I blanched, chopped, and added to the sauce, 1/2 tsp. cinnamon, 1/4 tsp. nutmeg, 1/4 cup of red wine (the stronger the better). I then used the water from the blanched tomatoes to cook the Fettucine (which adds a delicious infused taste), and when the meatballs were done, I added them to the sauce. Dinner was great and I'll definitely be using the recipe again. THANKS!

A fantastic dish, thoroughly enjoyed by everyone at my Father Day Brunch .
