Referred to as 'Mexican White Trash,' These Balls Never Fail

Servings: 4

1 pound ground beef
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 egg
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
4 ounces mozzarella cheese, cut into small cubes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 jar (24 ounces) marinara sauce

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

Take a small amount of the meat mixture and flatten it in your hand. Place a cube of mozzarella cheese in the center and wrap the meat around it, forming a ball. Repeat with the remaining meat and cheese.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

Pour the marinara sauce over the meatballs in the skillet. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and the cheese is melted.
