1/2 pound sliced mushrooms
2 1/2 cups fat-skimmed chicken broth
1 large egg
1/2 pound ground lean (7% fat) beef
1/2 pound ground veal or turkey
1/4 cup fine dried bread crumbs
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 can (about 15 oz.) diced tomatoes
1 can (about 8 oz.) tomato sauce
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning mix or dried oregano
1/2 pound dried spaghetti
1/4 cup slivered fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese

1
In a 5- to 6-quart pan over high heat, frequently stir mushrooms and 1/4 cup broth until liquid evaporates and mushrooms are lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
2
Meanwhile, in a bowl, beat egg to blend. Add beef, veal, bread crumbs, onion, and 1/4 cup broth. Mix well.
3
To mushrooms, add remaining broth, 2 cups water, tomatoes (with juice), tomato sauce, and Italian seasoning. Drop rounded tablespoons of meat mixture into pan. Bring to a simmer, turn meatballs over gently, and cook until no longer pink in center of thickest part (cut to test), 5 to 7 minutes. With a slotted spoon, put meatballs in a bowl.

Turn heat to high and add spaghetti to pan. Boil, stirring often, until pasta is tender to bite, about 10 minutes.
5
Return meatballs and any juice to pan. Stir gently just until hot, about 2 minutes.
6
Spoon spaghetti and meatballs into wide bowls or onto plates. Sprinkle with basil and cheese.
