This was quick and easy to throw together. I left out the olives (personal preference) and added lots of shredded cheddar cheese to my dish and the sauce turned out so cheesy and yummy! It's a nice change of pace from the way I usually make my spaghetti and meatballs. Thanks for sharing.

This is a quick and easy meal, perfect for those busy nights. I followed instructions as listed using a 24 oz jar of Classico Four Cheese pasta sauce and my Italian Meatballs, recipe #418080, with great results. Will make this again, thanks for sharing :)<br/>Made for recipe tag game at kittencalskitchen forum.

Oh yummy! I used homemade turkey meatballs that I had in the freezer, and recipe #136292 for the pasta sauce. I also used ring pasta. Kind of like eating homemade spaghetti o's! :) Delicious! Made for KK Recipe Tag

This was so convenient and we ended up with a really good meal! I too skipped the olives because I didn't have any on hand. I think that your choice of sauce and meatballs affects the overall outcome. I used a nice basil pasta sauce with some seasoned meatballs. We topped ours with mozzarella and we didn't need any more seasoning. Made for the Think Pink Tag. Thanks! :)
