Mini Meatballs with Sweet and Sour Sauce

Schools coming! And you know what that means, right moms? You need a list of baon food! Here's a recipe that will surely get two thumbs up from your kids. You can pack this as is with some fruit and vegetable sticks with dip or a salad or you can also serve this with rice, some juice and fruit for dessert.


Just look how colorful and fun that is! Your kids definitely won't be able to resist this baon.

What to buy:

  • lean ground beef
  • onion powder
  • ginger powder
  • S&P
In a bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well with your hands. Form into balls. Remember that the beef will still shrink while frying so be sure to make the meatballs bigger than the actual desired size. Fry in hot oil then drain on paper towels. 

I used my fun veggie mini forks instead of a bbq stick. I recommend you do the same also as these are safer. They're plastic and the edges are rounded whereas a barbecue stick can be quite dangerous especially for very young children. 

Send me some love if your kids liked this!
For the sauce, I just used regular bottled sweet and sour sauce. Put in a separate spill proof container so that the meatballs won't get soggy come lunch time.
