Added by Pat

Ingredients

  • 4 pounds ground beef
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 12 mozzarella string cheese sticks, cut into 4 pieces
  • Slow Cooker Marinara Sauce
  • Cooked pasta

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350° F
  2. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, eggs, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
  3. Divide mixture into 1/3 cup sizes and flatten each (about 48 meatballs). Place 1 piece of string cheese in the center of 1 and roll mixture around cheese, forming into a ball. 
  4. Bake 25 to 30 minutes. Allow meatballs to cool, vaccum seal and freeze.

When ready to serve:

  1. Add frozen meatballs to cold Slow Cooker Marinara Sauce. Cook on HIGH for 2 1/2 to 3 hours or LOW 5 to 6 hours until meatballs are heated through.
  2. Serve over cooked pasta.
Serves: 8
 
Test Kitchen Tip: To make smaller portions, we suggest using 1 cup sauce per every 2 meatballs.
