- 16 oz Ragu marinara sauce
- 1 Tablespoon honey

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 F degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix all the meatballs ingredients together in a large bowl. Shape the mixture into meatballs. (I ended up with about 30 meatballs.) Place all the meatballs onto the baking sheet.
- Bake for about 30 minutes or until meatballs are done and browned.
Sauce
- Saute chopped onion in a large skillet until translucent. Add to the skillet the chopped carrots and season carrots & onion with salt to taste. Cover with a lid and saute for couple minutes, until tender. Pour marinara sauce, honey and red wine over the vegetables in the skillet, and stir everything. Simmer uncovered for about 5 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and freshly chopped basil, and stir everything.
- Add meatballs to the marinara sauce and pour the sauce over them. Garnish with freshly chopped basil if you want.
- You can serve the Italian meatballs with marinara sauce over gluten free spaghetti, pasta or mashed potatoes. Enjoy!
