For beef meatballs with some Mediterranean vibes, lace them with our rich herb and mushroom seasoning. Then add an extra layer of flavour by coating them in our onion chutney before serving over a simple and textural salad - like apple and turnip - to balance out the richness. Don't forget the drizzle of creamy pesto dressing to tie everything together.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.
