Preheat oven to 350°F. For the Meatballs, mix bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, Gourmet Garden Lightly Dried Italian Herbs, salt and pepper in large bowl. Add egg, milk and Gourmet Garden Garlic Stir-In Paste; mix well. Add ground beef and onions; mix well. Shape mixture into 1-inch meatballs (about 30). Place on foil-lined 15x10x1-inch baking pan.
Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until cooked through. Drain well.
Meanwhile, for the Pomodoro Sauce, heat oil in medium saucepan on medium heat. Add Gourmet Garden Garlic Stir-In Paste; cook and stir 30 seconds or until fragrant. Stir in remaining ingredients. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Add meatballs to sauce.
Serve meatballs and sauce over cooked pasta and sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese, if desired.
