Mexican Meatballs are made with ground beef meatballs smothered in enchilada sauce and covered with cheese! Eat them with rice, rol them in a tortilla, or add them to a sandwich to make a torta!
2cupsgrated cheesecheddar, Monterey jack, and Colby jack, and pepper jack are all good choices
cilantro for garnishif desired
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl whisk eggs. Add ground beef, 1/4 cup of enchildad sauce, oats (or crushed corn chips), and all spices.
Shape meat mixure into meatballs. I like to use a cookie scoop. Set meatballs in prepared baking dish.
Pour remaining enchilada sauce over meatballs.
Cover and bake for 30 minutes.
Uncover and sprinkle cheese over meatballs. Bake for 5-10 more minuntes or until cheese is melted.
Notes
GARNISH: It's fun to garnish the meatballs with cilantro, tomatoes, avocados, lime wedges, and green onions.MAKE AHEAD: Assemble the meatballs and pour enchilada sauce over them. Cover the dish with foil and refrigerate until you're ready to bake them. Add ten minutes to bake time.
