Tips
Cooking Tip: Be sure to buy prepared meatballs that aren't deep-fried. You can even use frozen cooked homemade meatballs, just make sure they are about 1-inch (2 1/2 cm) in size.
For the Adventurous: Add 2 tbsp (30 mL) chipotle barbecue sauce and 1/2 cup (125 mL) roasted red pepper strips with pasta sauce. Use Canadian Asiago cheese.
Healthy Eating Tip: This recipe is a great source of vitamin B12 and iron, two important nutrients for growing minds! What a great way to start off another school year.
