I make Martha's spaghetti sauce recipe from her "Comfort Food" cookbook with San Marzanos from our summer garden. I keep it in the freezer and it was outstanding with the meatballs. Please don't wipe out the pan. the oil, in which the meatballs were cooked, is what flavors the tomatoes and makes the sauce! To freeze separately, put sauce in freezer bags, but open-freeze the uncooked meatballs on a tray, then wrap in cling film once hard.
