Spinach Garlic Meatballs Stuffed with Mozzarella

In a bowl, combine ground meat, chopped spinach, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, pepper, oregano, red pepper flakes, and Parmesan cheese.
Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
2. Form and Stuff the Meatballs
Take about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and flatten it in your hand.
Place a cube of mozzarella in the center and wrap the meat around it, forming a ball. Ensure the cheese is completely sealed to prevent leakage.
Repeat until all the meatballs are formed.
3. Cook the Meatballs
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the meatballs and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides (about 6-8 minutes).
If serving with marinara sauce, pour the sauce over the meatballs and let them simmer for 10 minutes.
4. Serve and Enjoy
Garnish with additional Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley if desired.
Serve over pasta, with a side of crusty bread, or enjoy as a protein-packed appetizer.
