Cheese stuffed meatballs (AMAZING!)

       Cheese Stuffed Meatballs and Spaghetti 

4 sticks of Mozzarella string cheese
1/2 cup Italian style bread crumbs
1 jar (48 oz) Sauce
1 to 1 1/2 lb of ground beef ( I used one lb)
a few shakes of garlic powder
1/2 tsp of salt
1/2 tsp of dried oregano leaves
1 egg
One box of spaghetti noodles ( I personally love angel hair)
Parmesan cheese (optional)


Step One
Cut string cheese into cubes 3/4 inch long. Freeze in sandwhich bag for one hour.

Step Two

Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Line your pan with foil. In large bowl, mix bread crumbs, 3 Tbsp of the sauce, ground beef, garlic powder, salt, oregano and egg together. Shape mixture into around 20 balls, (this # doesn't have to be perfect. Just make them nice sizes). What I did was press one at a time, flat, then placed a cheese cube into it and folded the meat around it and rolled it in my hands until it was a ball again.
Place meatballs in pan. Bake for 20-30 minutes (uncovered).
Psh. The recipe I got this from (and tweaked) said bake for 10 minutes... psh yea not done until 20 or 30 minutes passed. Stupid recipe. lol

Step Three
Prepare the rest of your pasta sauce and pasta (in the way you are most comfortable).
Then you are done :)

Enjoy!
