Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine bread crumbs and cheese. Crumble sausage over mixture and mix well. Shape into 1/2-in. balls. , Place in a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until juices run clear; drain and set aside., In a Dutch oven, saute the leeks, carrot and celery in oil until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer.

Steps:

• Soak beans overnight. Drain, cover with water and bring to a boil over high heat. Drain and rinse again. Return to pot and cover with 2 inches of cold water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer.
• Sauté onion, carrots and celery in olive oil until golden. Add to the beans with the tomatoes and their juice, parsley, thyme and salt and pepper to taste.
• Cover pot and simmer until soup has thickened and beans are tender, about 2 hours. (I like to put my soup in a dutch oven with a tight lid & bake at 300 degrees - it doesn't seem tot heat the house up as much & there is no risk of scorching) Check often to avoid sticking if on stove top (check at an hour if in the oven), adding more water if necessary. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir lamb neck bones in hot butter until browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir until browned, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Stir water, tomato sauce, salt, allspice, and pepper together in a small bowl; pour into the skillet and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, place a cover on the skillet, and cook until the meat pulls away from the neck bones, about 45 minutes.
• Put green beans and potatoes into the skillet so they are in liquid, replace cover, and continue cooking until the beans are tender and the potatoes are cooked through, about 15 minutes. Remove and discard bones before serving.
