1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet with foil and non stick spray. Set aside.
2. Finely mince your yellow onion and your fresh garlic. Measure out and set both aside. Finely chop your fresh parsley flakes, measure out and set aside.

4. Using your hands, mix everything well for about 3-5 minutes.

Assembling the Grown Up Spaghettio's Dish:

1. Bring a pot of salted water to boil. Once boiling, add your O pasta shapes and boil for 11-15 minutes or until they are al dente.
2. When done, drain and run under cold water for about 30 seconds. Remove and drizzle some olive oil over so they do not stick tougher.
3. Remove the lid from your tomato sauce pot. Using a 1 cup measuring cup, scoop out the O pasta shapes and add them to your sauce. Add about 4 cups total. (NOTE: You can add a little more or a little less, it is your preference.)
4. Next, add about 50 itty bitty meatballs to the pot as well.
5. Using a spoon mix the sauce, the O shape pasta and the itty bitty meatballs together. (NOTE: if you feel it’s too saucy or the sauce to pasta and meatball ratio is not to your liking, add a little more pasta and a few more meatballs. Then, mix again).
6. When done, serve with extra fresh parsley flakes, extra grated parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes if desired.
7. ENJOY!
