To serve: 

Ready-bought tzatziki sauce

8 medium Rosa tomatoes

8 asparagus spears, blanched

1.      For the meatballs: Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl with a fork until combined. Roll 15 ml of mixture into little balls and place on a lightly greased baking tray. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C until golden and cooked. Allow to cool to room temperature.

2.      Thread the meatballs with the Rosa tomatoes onto wooden skewers. Place one or two skewers with the asparagus spears into a Glad Rainbow Sandwich bag. Fold closed and secure with a fun sticker.

Tip:  

Prepare the meatballs the night before. Cook only the amount needed and freeze the rest for later use.

 Snacks and drinks for during the day: 

  • Serve main meal with an additional Asian Noodle salad
  • Frozen mineral water for staying cool during the day.

  • Ready bought fruit smoothie/ yoghurt drink/ fruit juice. 
  • Seed and fruit bar/oat crunchies.
