- 1-2 cups Pineapple
- 1/2 cup Trader Joe's Soyaki Sauce

- Add the Pineapple to the pan - To the same pan, add the chopped pineapple. Let it carmelize just a bit before adding the veggies.1-2 cups Pineapple
- Cook the veggies - To the same pan, add the stir-fry veggies and pineapple. After a couple of minutes, add a splash of water and put the lid on to steam the veggies until finished.1 package Trader Joe's Stir-fry Vegetables
- Add the meatballs back into the pan.
- Add sauce – Pour in Soyaki sauce and toss to coat all the veggies and meatballs. Let it simmer for 2–3 minutes until everything’s hot and coated.1/2 cup Trader Joe's Soyaki Sauce
- Cook the rice – I just microwave Trader Joe’s frozen jasmine rice (3 minutes and done).1 package Trader Joe's Frozen Jasmine Rice
- Serve the meatballs and veggies over the rice!
Notes
- To keep my recipes a little lighter I use spray cooking oil like this Spray Avocado Oil from Trader Joe's.
- Any stir-fry veggies work. Or even just some broccoli or a bell pepper. Any veggies that you like.
- The meatballs are pre-cooked, so they just need to be heated through. I like to brown them for added flavor.
- I like to add a few tbsp of water and cover the veggies with a lid. This allows for them to finish cooking in the steam and it gets all the yummy brown bits off the bottom of the pan from cooking the meatballs.
- This is a great meal-prep recipe and easily makes 4-5 meals. Enjoy!
