First of all, Pegeen thanks for the plug for my recipe. Just another note, meatballs (polpette) in Italy are always served by themselves as a separate course. Spaghetti with giant meatballs is entirely an Italian-American thing.

A basic tomato sauce?
Fry onion in olive oil, add tomato passata, salt, pepper, basil, and garlic if you like, along with some water. let it reduce until the oil floats on top of the tomato and creates a pool of red gorgeousness that demands all the attention of whatever bread or pasta you might have on hand, and voilá!

Make it an IKEA Swedish dinner - meatballs with mashed potato, a vegetable, gravy and lingonberry sauce (sub cranberry sauce).

You could dress them in tonnato (tuna) sauce, along these lines, pasta on the side.
