Growing up, my grandma took care of me, my brother, and my cousins while our parents worked during the day. She was and still is a very practical woman. She would cook up a month worth of meatballs (동그랑땡) at a time, and our lunch boxes had those meatballs for 30 days straight. I don’t know the exact recipe, but I remember them being delicious for the first few days. Then I would just trade banchan (side dishes) with my friends; thank goodness, they were quite popular. Now, these meatballs became a funny memory we share with my father because he also had his fair share of meatballs while growing up.
I promise to myself that I won’t serve the same food to Munchkin several days straight. Having said that, I think meatballs are great to stock up in the fridge; they freeze well, taste good, and are perfect when I want to add some meat to Munchkin’s diet.
