Here is how you make Meatball Madness:

Makes 4 servingsPreheat the oven to 450?F. Combine all of the ingredients except for the olive oil in a large mixing bowl and mix by hand until thoroughly incorporated. Drizzle the olive oil into a small baking dish, making sure to evenly coat the entire surface (use your hand to help spread the oil). Roll the mixture into round, golf-ball sized meatballs making sure to pack the meat firmly. Place the balls into an oiled baking dish so that the meatballs are lined up evenly in rows and are touching each of their four neighbors in a grid. Roast until firm and cooked through (about 20 minutes). While the meatballs are roasting, heat 4 cups of Classic Tomato Sauce in a small pot over a medium / high flame, stirring constantly. When the meatballs are firm and fully cooked, drain the excess grease from the pan then poor the tomato sauce over them and continue roasting for another 14 minutes.
