If you're been following a low sodium diet for some time now, then you understand the importance of prepping things in advance. This is why I highly recommend doubling, or even tripling this recipe and freezing these low sodium meatballs for later. They hold really well frozen and can be pulled out and popped into a hot marinara sauce or oven for an easy dinner.
