Sprinkle with cheese.FOOD for THOUGHT These "meatballs" are rolled in a small amount of wheat germ, which gives them a golden brown color and just a bit of crunch. Wheat germ has a nutty flavor and provides vitamin E, an antioxidant that helps protect cells from damaging substances."This is a vegetarian spaghetti and meatballs, but my family didn't notice the difference, and they're pretty determined meat eaters. Spaghetti tastes great after chemo, and it is easy to reheat in single servings in the microwave. However, the real meatballs taste like aluminum foil and these don't, so they are a great alternative." -ANNE R.NUTRITION FACTS: High in iron, folic acid and magnesium excellent source of fiber1 Serving: Calories 390 (Calories from Fat 70) Fat 8g (Saturated 1g) Cholesterol 35mg Sodium 470mg Potassium 460mg Carbohydrate 74g (Dietary Fiber 6g) Protein 12g % DAILY VALUE: Vitamin A 12% Vitamin C 10% Calcium 6% Iron 22% Folic Acid 32% Magnesium 22% DIET EXCHANGES: 5 StarchHelpful For These Side Effects: (n), (c)From "Betty Crocker's Living with Cancer Cookbook."
