These are my Mum’s meatballs, she made for my fussy kids when she was visiting me from New Zealand. They are gluten free, packed with hidden greens & more importantly packed with flavour. Meatballs make a fabulous quick dinner or canape to serve at a party. Serve with vegetables or salad for a main or for the kids some home make cut sweet potato chips. They also make a good lunch box option for something a little more healthy than a P&J sandwich.
INGREDIENTS
500grams of ground beef or mince
1 zuchinni
1 onion
1 tablespoon of tomato paste
2 teaspoons of olive oil
