Quick Meal Monday 11/9

Today I had no desire to make dinner.  I literally had no energy.  Baby girl was up coughing and throwing up till 3 a.m. and I had to get up at 6 a.m. and get ready for work.  I have been dragging all day.  I came home and wanted to sleep but, I had a bunch of hungry kids.  How dare them! I don't know who gave them permission to be hungry.... I did a quick search on the internet and this is what I came up with:

Cheesy Volcano Meatballs 

Prep Time:

10 min

Total Time:

24 min

1 lb. lean ground beef( I used extra lean)

6   RITZ Crackers, finely crushed

1/4 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese (I used Asiago as that is what I had on hand)

3/4 cup  spaghetti sauce, divided

12 Cheddar Cheese Cubes

hot dog buns

MIX meat, cracker crumbs, Parmesan and 1/4 cup spaghetti sauce. Shape into 12 meatballs, using about 2 Tbsp. meat mixture for each.

PLACE, 2 inches apart, in shallow baking pan sprayed with cooking spray. Press 1 cheese cube deeply into center of each meatball.

BAKE 14 min. or until meatballs are done (160ºF). Meanwhile, microwave remaining sauce in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 30 sec. or until heated through; spoon into buns. Fill with meatballs.

Then sit back and enjoy! My son said it was an instant classic. Judging by this pic maybe he is right (lol)

It was super fast and effortless!
