Hello!

My kids love them but I’ve only ever made them with spaghetti or as a filling for subs.
I’ve tried googling recipes but those are the two main things that come up or casserole recipes which my kids aren’t fans of.

  • Hey there! I want to switch things up for the kids. If you’re looking to go beyond the usual spaghetti and subs, how about trying a delicious twist with chicken and rice in the crockpot?
    See the link https://sweetandsavorymeals.com/crockpot-chicken-and-rice. It’s a fantastic way to infuse flavor and keep things easy. You can make savory chicken meatballs, slow-cooked with a tasty sauce, and then serve them over a bed of fluffy rice. It’s a kid-friendly meal that’s both comforting and diverse. Give it a shot, and you might just add a new favorite to the rotation! ???????????? #NewFamilyFavorites


  • Recipe tin eats has an amazing recipe for Thai meat balls to serve with rice and veggies. Also to use in Bahn mi. If you haven’t tried her recipes before, get ready to have your mind blown!


  • Potatoe Mash & Salad! YUM!!


  • I honestly just serve them with mash and veges. If they want a little bit of BBQ or tomato sauce, we allow that.


  • Simple salad and sweet potato fries or mash potato, gravy and vegetables


  • We also tend to only serve meat balls with a tomato/bolognaise based sauce so I’m keen to read other mums’ suggestions for something different!


  • I usually make them with spaghetti and a Tuscan meatballs sauce. But also have have been making them with the tomato sauce but putting them on long rolls like a subway sub and calling it homemade subway


  • I use the masterfoods tuscan meatball mealbase, but i add geated zucchini, black olives, mushrooms and bacon into the meat mixture before making into balls. Everyone loves them!


  • I usually just cook them with Spaghetti and a tomato based sauce but occasionally I will serve them with a cous cous salad with roasted vegetables and a persian spice mix and its soooo delicious. Was a recipe I made with hello fresh but I tweaked it a little


  • My kids love meatballs so much that sometimes I just serve them with veggies or salad. Like you meatballs with pasta is usually my go to but if I’m wanting more veg I just do meatballs and veg.


  • mash and gravy! ????


  • There is a Masterfoods sachet called ‘Tuscan Meatballs’ which is delicious! I often serve the meatballs on top of a bed of rice as well.


  • I lightly fry the meatballs then bake them. I usually serve them with baked vegies.


  • We love them with mash potatoes and gravy and than left overs for sandwiches.


  • We always have them with mashed potatoes and gravy. Meatball sandwiches with tomato sauce is nice too, might have to cut them in half if they are big
