Speedy Saucy Asian Meatballs

This dish is a mid-week saviour. Speedy Saucy Asian Meatballs made using Perfectly Balanced Pork, Carrot and Brown Rice Meatballs is cooked and, on the table, in under 20 minutes making it a great cheat night dinner.

A cheat night dinner is one that requires minimal cooking, but the end result is still a well-balanced family meal. Perfectly Balanced meatballs are the perfect blend of meat and vegetables making them ideal for the little members. I have teamed the meatballs up with a super quick Asian style sauce. The sauce will double as a dressing for the steamed vegetables and the brown rice.

In true cheat night dinner style, I am using microwave brown rice and frozen vegetables that will be cooked while the meatballs bake in the oven. Everything will then come together nice and easy.

You will find the Perfectly Balanced range  in the meat section of your local Woolworths.
