Edamame Spaghetti & Meatballs with Cheesy Cauliflower Breadsticks

Tried out some Organic Edamame Spaghetti from Costco and the kids didn't even notice!!! I thought these turned out better than I expected them to! What a great, healthier alternative to pasta! I will definitely be keeping these in stock at home. These sell for less than $10 for two large bags of noodles. I made about 3/4 of a bag and there was enough for my family plus leftovers for lunch the next day. And we made some Cheesy Cauliflower Breadsticks to go with it that I found on Facebook (http://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/recipes/a50705/cheesy-cauli-bread-recipe/). I would definitely recommend waiting for the riced cauliflower to dry completely after washing and grating since mine turned out a little watery, otherwise it was really good!
