Easy recipe with good flavor. You can make your own cooked meatballs or use the frozen from the store. I cheat and use the frozen. If using frozen just mix in no need to thaw if precooked. You can also add a drained can of corn You can make this vegan with the plant based meatballs .. Any kind is useable. Top with sour cream. Diced tomatoe. Green chilies. Jalapenos .. Diced onion . chives. Whatever you like or just eat as is!
