Greek Inspired Meatball Bowl
I love a fresh summer dinner, especially when it’s this easy! Using @kidfreshfoods chicken meatballs makes this super simple while sneaking in some extra veggies. While the meatballs bake, you can gather and chop your vegetables and microwave the rice. I made my own tzatziki sauce, but store-bought works just as well for an even quicker meal. Try this recipe, and you won’t be disappointed!
