Title :: Mozzarella Meatballs
Author :: sammy568
Category :: Meat
Ingredients ::
- 7 sticks string cheese
- 3 pounds low-fat content ground beef
- 1 ½ C bread crumbs
- 2 eggs
- ¼ C onion, diced
- 1 T minced garlic
- 1 T dried parsley
- 1 t salt
- ¼ t black pepper
These freeze very well. If you double this, you can use a 6 pound tray of ground beef from Costco or Sam's Club.
Cut each stick of string cheese into 8 equal pieces. Put pieces in a Ziploc bag or bowl and freeze for at least 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Mix remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Remove cheese from freezer. Make 1 ½ inch meatballs, molding the meat around a piece of cheese. Seal very, very tightly, or the cheese will sneak out. Put meatballs on a cookie sheet (I lined mine with Reynolds Release) and bake for about 10 minutes. You'll know they're done when they're brown and some of the cheese makes an appearance. Makes about 50-60 meatballs and freezes very well.
