Recipe Tips & Tricks
- Play around with the flavors. Italian seasoning + mozzarella or provolone cheese + sun-dried tomatoes. Oregano + Feta cheese with ground lamb.
- Use any combination of ground meat that your family enjoys.
- Serve with ketchup or barbecue sauce.
- I used Red Boat Fish Sauce because Worcestershire sauce contains molasses.
