I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my meatballs didn't turn out as good as I hoped. They were a bit bland and the lettuce cups were soggy.

These meatballs were a bit dry for my taste, but I think that's because I didn't cook them long enough. Next time I'll cook them for a few minutes longer.

These meatballs were a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a different type of chili sauce. Other than that, they were really good!
