Directions
These meatballs are packed with powerful herbs and spices and make a delicious meal for everyone. Prep them during nap time and do the rest later on.
You could serve them with hummus, greek salad and pitta sticks, but a nice alternative for younger babies is butternut squash couscous balls (just the two mixed with a little yoghurt). See which your baby likes best!
