Recipes:
Cheesy Baked Meatballs
Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef (or half ground beef, half ground pork for extra flavor)
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 egg
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup marinara sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the Meatball Mixture:
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix everything well until evenly combined.
Form the Meatballs:
Scoop about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the meat mixture and roll into a ball. Place each meatball on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased. Repeat until all the meat mixture is used up.
Bake the Meatballs:
Place the meatballs in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until they’re fully cooked and slightly browned on the outside.
Add Sauce and Cheese:
Once the meatballs are done, remove them from the oven and pour marinara sauce over each meatball. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously on top.
Melt the Cheese:
Return the meatballs to the oven for another 5 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and become bubbly.
Garnish & Serve:
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot!
Enjoy your cheesy, savory meatballs with pasta, as an appetizer, or on a sub roll!
