I love a good meatball. They are almost the perfect snack don’t you agree? Good cold or hot, with or without a sauce and you can make them dinner if you want to! I occasionally purchase meatballs from Charlies in Morley, one of my fave foodie haunts, and I may have been spotted buying cannolli there too! These are fantastic for lunchboxes and this recipe appears in Portable Lunches which is only available to the Insider Club. If you haven’t joined us yet, why not?? Get on it people.
In the meantime, add these to your menu, they’ll do triple duty from dinner to lunch box to after school snacks.
