Baked mashed potatoes with tomato sauce and meatballs
Overview
This is a delicious dish that is both a side dish and a staple food. Using mashed potatoes instead of traditional rice or pasta not only has a more delicate taste, but also absorbs the soup better, so the taste after baking will naturally be better! The sweet and sour tomato sauce and meatball sauce, paired with the fragrant and stringy cheese, will definitely make you want to eat! The combination of meat, vegetables, and cheese is more nutritionally balanced. Personally, I think it would be very popular as a staple food at family dinners!
