This is a simple, tasty and nutritious meal for the whole family. Best thing about this meal is it is JAM PACKED with hidden vegetables!! 
 
I served this with zucchini noodles (zoodles) that I made with my spiralizer and fried after I cooked the meatballs. Can also serve with lentil pulse pasta for GF option which is also higher in protein than regular wheat pasta. 
For the sauce I used our Veggie Bomb Pasta Sauce recipe
