Meatballs
I was amazed and delighted when my children ate this meal. A friend of mine made them for dinner and the children really loved them. The beauty is they are so easy to eat and really tasty and delicious. Later I tried cooking them myself and they ate them again! If your children learn to love these you are really onto a winner. Serve them with pasta, rice, jacket or mashed potatoes and salad. Very versatile. You can even keep them and have them cold for a picnic lunch the next day. If you want them with pasta you could make a tomato sauce (you will find the recipe in the NEW E-BOOK and serve them with spaghetti.
