  • Recipe Submitted by on

 Ingredients List

  • For Meatballs
  • 3/4 lb ground pork
  • 3/4 lb ground beef
  • 10 oz enchilada sauce (10 oz can)
  • 1 jalapeno chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh oregano chopped (dried oregano can be used as well)
  • 5 green onions chopped
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (I used Panko)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • For the Bake
  • 10 oz enchilada sauce (10 oz can)
  • 1 1/2 cups Monterey Jack cheese shredded
  • Optional Toppings
  • cilantro
  • green onions
  • jalapenos
  • tomatoes
  • avocados
  • salsa
  • sour cream

 Directions

Preheat your oven to 400 F degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
In a large bowl add all the meatball ingredients and mix well using your clean hands. Shape the meat mixture into balls around the size of a golf ball. You should get around 30 meatballs.
Place the meatballs onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes until golden brown.
In a large skillet or a casserole dish, pour the enchilada sauce over the entire bottom. Sprinkle with about half of the cheese. Place the meatballs over the sauce then top with the remaining cheese.
Bake the casserole for another 20 minutes until the cheese melts and starts to brown on top.
Sprinkle with the optional toppings, if preferred.
