    Making this right now, it’s frequently a request for me to make them when I have gatherings or just cause the kids love them so much. Wish I could have hard copy of your recipes for more good ideas.

      Hi Leslie, This recipe is good with rice and sauteed red peppers and onions. Steamed broccoli would be tasty with the meatballs too.
