Smart Olive-Stuffed Meatballs

with Roasted Veggies

Tonight's tender shawarma-spiced meatballs have a surprising twist: Their added boost of flavour comes from the addition of briny olives. Spiced roasted peppers, carrots and onion petals round out this Cal and Carb Smart meal, while a drizzle of creamy hummus provides a zippy finish.
