"This is a fun twist to comfort food for me. I love meatballs and this is a fun take on them. The meatballs have a great flavor profile and are delicious served over rice noodles. Notes: -You can use rice noodles (the type used for Pad Thai, etc... ) OR you can use vermicelli noodles. -As written, this is served with a cold noodle and lettuce salad. If you prefer, keep the noodles warm and serve the lettuce salad on the side! Experiment and find your favorite combination. Enjoy!"

Oh my goodness - I knew these would be good just based on the ingredients - but these are DELIGHTFULLY good! The only thing I'll do differently next time is make twice the sauce, as it wasn't as much as I wanted drizzled over the salad. The meatballs themselves were scrumptious, but the noodle & veggie salad and sauce took them way over the top. I try not to eat peanuts, so I subbed some Chinese fried noodles (sorry about that!). These are going into my Best of 2024 file! Thanks for sharing!
