Suggestion
Although this recipe calls for the Veggie Meatballs, you may substitute Yves Garden Vegetable Patties. Made with two patties, this recipe will feed two hungry adults. To prepare the patties, cut them into 1 in. (2.5 cm) square pieces and add to the recipe in step 5, in place of meatballs.* We recommend Selection and Irresistibles products.
