This recipe checks all the boxes for me- high protein, tons of crunch from fresh veggies, and easy to meal prep for the week!

The meatballs are versatile and can easily be utilized with different sauces to change up the flavor profile (BBQ sauce, buffalo sauce, and marinara are other go-to options), but the sweet thai chili in this recipe really ties everything together well.

It's one of those meals that is fresh and satiating without being overly complicated!

I love to pair these meatballs with coleslaw by combining 1 cup coleslaw mix, 1/2 tbsp mayo, 1/2 tbsp plain greek yogurt, & 1 tsp apple cider vinegar! Top off your bowl with yummy fresh toppings like mini cucumbers, shredded carrots, pickled red onion, avocado, & everything bagel seasoning!
