Sweet and Sour Meat/ Cheese Balls w. Braised Cabbage and Brown Rice Pilaf

• Vegetarian: Follow the video instructions. Basically, form the cheese mix into well compressed, ping pong sized balls, then flatten and recompress those into 3/4" thick disks. Heat some oil in a pan over medium low. When hot, add the cheese patties and brown on each side - about 1 minute per side- and serve atop the sauce which you heat independently- stovetop or microwave is fine.

• Omnivore: Gently transfer the sauce with the cabbage and meatballs to a sauce pot. Larger shares add the additional meatballs jarred separately. Add a little water ( from rinsing out the jar) and bring the sauce, vegetables and meatballs to a gentle simmer. Use a lid. Simmer 5-7 minutes being sure to not scorch the sauce. Check the sauce for salt. Reserve.

• Heat a little oil in a sauté pan. When hot add the rice. Toss, season with a little salt and add a dash of oil if needed. Allow to heat through and become fragrant.

• Arrange the rice on plates/ bowls. Top with the sauce and meatballs, cabbage and peppers.
