Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 16 oz frozen fully cooked meatballs thawed
  • 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough 8-count, such as Pillsbury Grands
  • 0.5 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Method
 

Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and minced garlic.
  3. Flatten each biscuit dough round into a 5-inch circle using a rolling pin or your hands.
  4. Place one meatball in the center of each dough circle. Top with about 1 teaspoon of the cheese mixture.
  5. Gather the edges of the dough around the meatball and pinch together to seal completely, forming a ball. Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Brush the tops of each meatball bomb with olive oil. Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, serve with warm marinara sauce for dipping. You can also add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the cheese mixture for a spicy kick. These meatball bombs are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F for 10 minutes.
