Ingredients

  • Ground beef
  • Ground pork
  • Shredded Gruyère cheese

Instructions

  1. Gently toss the meatballs in the sauce to coat them evenly.

Notes

  • You can substitute the ground pork with ground turkey or chicken for a lighter option.
  • If you prefer a vegetarian version, consider using plant-based meat alternatives.
  • The meatballs can also be made ahead of time and frozen for later use.
  • Just bake them, let them cool, and store them in an airtight container in the freezer.
