Make the mixture: Combine ground meat, cottage cheese, egg, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, oregano, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix gently until just combined.

Shape: Form into small meatballs. The cottage cheese will make the mixture quite soft, which is what you want for a tender meatball.

Sear: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and sear, turning occasionally, until browned and lightly crisp on all sides.

Add the sauce: Pour the Colavita Tomato & Basil Sauce directly into the skillet with the meatballs.

Finish cooking in the sauce: Lower the heat, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, until the meat is fully cooked.

Finish: Top with fresh basil, Parmesan and a drizzle of olive oil.
