Dinner: Chorizo & Cheddar Cheese Meatballs

Ingredients

1 1/2 lb. Ground Beef
1 1/2 Chorizo Sausages
1 Cup Cheddar Cheese
1 Cup Tomato Sauce
1/3 Cup Crushed Pork Rinds
2 Large Eggs
1 tsp. Cumin
1 tsp. Chili Powder
1 tsp. Kosher Salt

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350F.
2. Add your pork rinds (about 1/3 of a bag) to the food processor.
3. Pulse the pork rinds until they are crushed completely. We will be using these to bind the meatballs together.
4. Break apart your chorizo sausage, making sure every piece is small. Sausage normally has some fat connecting together inside, so you want to tear through that so the mixture will be even.
5. Place your chorizo sausage in a large mixing bowl.
6. Add your ground beef to the mixture. Don’t touch it just yet.
7. Add your crushed pork rinds on top of the ground beef.
8. Add your cheddar cheese to the ground beef.
9. Measure out your cumin, chili powder, salt and eggs. Add them to the ground beef mixture – this is where the fun begins.
10. Mix everything together well using your hands. This is going to get messy, but don’t worry about it!
11. Roll your meatballs out and rest them in a foiled baking tray.
12. Make sure your meatballs are spread out evenly to allow proper cooking. Some grease and cheese will seep out of the meatballs so you don’t want them to get stuck together.
13. Cook them in the oven for 30-35 minutes. It may need longer if you made larger meatballs.
14. Let them cool for 5 minutes or so, and remove them from the grease filled tray.
15. Serve with tomato sauce on each!
