Cheesy Teriyaki Meatballs

Pin It

Meatballs are great on its own or on pasta, but for us Pinoys, rice will always be the best for such meaty dish. I recently craved for meatballs and wondering what would be the best sauce to match for my cravings. I could use tomato sauce, mushroom gravy - which is one of my favorites, or something I haven't tried before, like a Barbecue teriyaki sauce. Finally, I decided to go for something new for my taste buds.

Adding parmesan cheese was also something new for me but reading some good feedbacks and suggestions online, I decided to give it a try. Well, it was definitely worth the taste! It gives a huge burst of flavor compare from the usual boring meatballs.
