Simmer for 3 hours.

Either store, in the fridge or freezer your meat balls for later mac and cheese use. Or start cooking your box of mac and cheese in the last 20 minutes of simmering your meat balls.

Top your mac and cheese with as many meatballs as you want, you may have leftovers depending on how many you use.
7
Great some fresh parmesan cheese on top, if desired.
