Meal prepping meatballs is a staple during my meal prep Sunday’s. Not only are they easy and packed with flavor, but the flavor combinations are endless! This allows you to mix up the flavor combinations weekly and never leaves you never bored with eating the same meal every week. They are also a great addition to a variety of meals so during the week you don’t have to eat the same meal. You can add these meatballs to salads, pasta, zoodles, or in simple bowls with veggies and a starch.
For this week I was able to combine the meatballs in two different dishes:
- Meatballs with zoodles and tomato sauce
- Meatball bowls with roasted broccoli and air fried cauliflower gnocchi
