Juicy Meatballs

Minced meat, Zucchini, Carrot, Onion, Any oil, Water

Juicy meatballs blend minced meat with zucchini, carrot and onion for tender, vegetable-rich bites that stay moist. They're a protein-packed finger food for babies from around 8 months and freeze well for busy weeks. Simmer or bake until cooked through and serve cut to a safe size.
