Ingredients

1 lb ground beef

1 lb Pork

1/2 cup bread crumbs

1/2 cup Parmesan cheese

1 egg

1/2 cup Finely chopped onions

4 tsp minced garlic

1 1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp Black pepper

48 mozzarella pearls


Directions

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with non-stick spray. Combine the meat, egg, breadcrumbs, cheese, salt, garlic, onion, black pepper and parsley in a bowl. Stir just until combined, do not over mix. Add a Tablespoon or two of water as needed to keep a wet mixture. Use a medium cookie scoop or spoon to scoop the meat. Then place a piece of cheese in the center and wrap the meat around the cheese. Form into 1 1/2" balls and place on the pan. Bake uncovered for 17-20 minutes, or until no longer pink in the middle. Turn halfway through, so the bottoms don’t brown. Simmer meatballs with marinara sauce for 10 minutes and serve over noodles if desired.
