As a Registered Dietitian, it makes me feel good to know that these savory Meatless Meatballs contain 12 grams of plant-based protein per serving, and they are made with a blend of soy and pea proteins, garlic, onion and other delicious spices!

These Meatless Meatballs can be microwaved, but I decided to cook them on the stovetop along with a serving of sweet and sour sauce and a few other yummy seasonings! They were done in less than 25 minutes! I topped the Meatless Meatballs off with some sesame seeds, placed them on top of a serving of white rice, and just like that…. dinner was done!!
