My sister-in-law Edna recently sent me a copy of one of my mother’s recipes. What was so special about it was that it is in my mon’s handwriting. I only hav about a dozen of her recipes that are handwritten. So I thought I would share this one with you.

1 cup Green Onions chopped
2 jumbo Onions chopped

Then add 3 cans imported tom paste 6oz, 3 cans tomato sauce 8oz, then 3 cups water. Salt and Pepper. Let simmer another 2 1/2 hours then add the meatballs and simmer of 1/2 hour to 45 minutes on low heat.
