Notes
We make this in an iron skillet since it is going in the oven. If you dont haev an oven safe skillet, simply make it in a skillet and then put it in a baking dish to go into the oven.
If you use ground beef or ground turkey, you will need to drain the skillet once the meatballs are removed before you add the tomatoes.
