Directions to make cheese stuffed meatballs

- Form balls using hands. Push top of knuckle into each ball to form a small indent. Stuff with cheese and close cheese inside of ball.
- Place balls on a baking pan lined with parchment paper.
- Bake at 375 ° for 30 minutes.
- If you choose to fry the meatballs, place balls on large non-stick skillet and pour 1 tbsp of avocado on top. Cook the meatballs until they are cooked all the way through. Roll balls around in pan occasionally to be sure all sides are cooking evenly. Will take about 25 min.
