Tomato & Squash Stew

Time: 30 minutes | Serves: 4

From IKEA we want to give another go to the traditional recipe of balls with this proposal: balls with tomato and pumpkin stew.

The main characters here are the vegetable protein balls, that are accompanied with basic ingredients that any kitchen has, like pumpkin, onion or crashed tomato. The combination cannot be better and is very simple to prepare.

Remember! You have the balls at the Swedish Food Market.
