    I feel terrible giving this one star, but my hubby wouldnt eat it. unfortunately we both found this really bland, despite adding extra herbs and extra garlic. Not sure where this could be improved. Instructions easy to follow.

    These were yummo. I also added some garlic and mixed herbs to the meatballs for extra flavour. Will defiately be making again.

    I made this last night, made a few changes to suit our tastes but an awesome base. I added mozzarella cubes to the meatballs and i added capsicum, eggplant, zucchini &mushrooms to the sauce, this also made it so we can have it for lunch today.

    First time I steamed meatballs, fantastic result! I added dried thyme and put a small cube of mozarella cheese in the centre. Will definately be making this again. Thanks for posting. tmrc_emoticons.)

    This was an easy and yummy dinner. I added a carrot, zucchini, red pepper and a few mushrooms to the sauce to increase the veg content. I also added a tbsp of veg stock paste. To the meatballs I added a large clove of garlic. They were so soft and enjoyed by my kids (6, 3 and 1). Thanks for the recipe.

    Great simple healthy quick meal!!

    Found both the balls and sauce a little bland even adding basil to sauce.

    Next time will be adding veggie stock to sauce along with 2x cans of diced tomatoes and perhaps some diced red capsicum to sweeten sauce and garlic to balls.

    i served with steamed rice with peas,corn and carrot through the rice for veggies.

    I also used coconut flour as suggested and it worked well.

    Thanks for sharing your receipe
