TOMATO-SAUCED MEATBALLS 
1 beaten egg
1 slice white bread, torn up
1 tbsp. catsup
1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning, crushed
1/4 tsp. salt
Dash of pepper
1/2 lb. ground beef
1 1/2 c. spaghetti sauce
1/4 c. dry white wine

In a small mixing bowl, combine beaten egg, bread, catsup, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Add ground beef. Mix well. Shape mixture into 16 meatballs. Arrange in an 8x8x2 inch baking dish.
