GREAT MEATBALLS, HERE! After making these we had 8 of them for supper with some cheese tortellini & it was very satisfying! The rest were divided between 2 freezer bags & frozen for later use! The guava jelly & chili sauce made a nice combo! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in the current Pick A Chef] -

I am married with 2 kids. One of whom has allergies to milk, eggs and nuts, and the other is very picky, also with a nut allergy. I'm really challenged in the kitchen, and need things to be super easy and fast. My goal is to make most things in advance so only the microwave is used around meal time.
