Recipe notes
Use meatballs labeled fully cooked; raw frozen meatballs require a different method.
Dietary labels apply only when all packaged ingredients meet those requirements. Check labels and cross-contact guidance for your needs. Salt is optional where listed; follow your own care plan rather than using a recipe to set sodium intake.
