Stuffed Meatballs with Sweet Potato & Brussel Sprout Hash

Stuffed Meatballs with Sweet Potato & Brussel Sprout Hash

Ingredients:

1 small onion, finely diced

1 medium carrot, finely diced

1 stalk of celery, finely diced

2 Tbs. yellow bell pepper, finely diced
1 Tbs olive oil

1/2 c. bread crumbs (panko)

1 egg, beaten

1 lb. ground meat (turkey, chicken, beef, meatloaf mix)

2 string cheese, diced into 12 pieces

Directions:

Saute the veggies in olive oil until softened before mixing together all ingredients except cheese. Form into meatballs and stuff 1 piece of diced mozzarella cheese into the center of each ball. Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes on a baking rack on top of baking sheet to promote even browning. Once removed from the oven, raise temperature to 425 degrees to roast the diced sweet potatoes and brussel sprouts for 40 minutes, stirring once midway through cooking time.

Enjoy!
