Instructions: Put veg. through food processor and add this to meat, along with salt, rice and water. Make into meatballs (mine are about 2" diameter) and bake in a large pan for about 30 minutes, at 350 degrees. (Or stand by the stove and brown in a skillet. Use this method and make a thin pan gravy if not making a tomato sauce.)
Add water to 1 6oz can tomato paste to equal 3 cups liquid. Place meatballs and tomato liquid into a covered 2 qt dish and bake 45 minutes at 350 degrees. Then uncover to thicken a little, but be careful because the sauce will evaporate quickly.
Good with mashed potatoes and even rice.

Most tomato pastes (or the ones I get) are ONLY tomatoes. Yes, canned tomato sauce has much more in it.
