Gingery Meatballs with No-Peanut Sauce

This all started back in March when I made Bon Appetit’s One-Pot Chicken and Rice with Peanut Sauce. I was out of peanut butter for the sauce, so I swapped it out with the cashew butter in my fridge. I was immediately hooked on this rich nutty sauce that had just a bit of heat, and lots of flavour. I whisked up the sauce and drizzled it over everything from tacos to salad. And each time I made the sauce, I tweaked it a bit more.

This is one of my favourite meal preps. It’s easy to prepare, but big on flavour and always fills me up for even the longest of afternoons at work. You can use any nut based butter that you have on hand for this recipe. And a mix of beef and pork work well for the meatballs too if you have both.
