Ingredients
-
1.5 pounds
beef- I like grass fed best
-
1
egg
-
1/4 cup
bread crumbs or grated parm cheese
-
8
cubes of mozzerella
-
1 teaspoon
salt
-
2 tablespoons
chopped garlic
-
1 cup
tomato sauce
Directions
-
Mix everything except the mozzarella & tomato sauce together. Roll mixture into 8 balls. Push one 1" cube of mozzarella into the center of each ball. Pour tomato sauce into saute pan, add meatballs, cover and cook for 15 minutes on med-high heat. Roll occasionally.
-
The cheese in the center will melt and the oil will make the meatballs VERY moist and juicy. Also, the problem of a raw center is gone and the meatballs cook quicker than with out the cheese center. Serve with pasta and your choice of red sauce.
