Stuffed Meatballs: Italian Cheese & Herb


Stuffed Meatballs: Italian & Herb

Stuffed Italian Cheese & Herb Meatballs

Imagine my surprise when I was selected to try out Krafts new Philadelphia Cooking Creme (what a creative idea!) before it hits the shelves nationwide! Free food? Seriously?  How could I decline!

I received a huge refrigerated case and was told to try them out and create video how-to's for each flavor. Let me just say, ALL of the cremes are soooo good and I'm not just saying that because I got them free lol. I'm positive you all will love them too because the flavor pay off is incredible!!

Here is my how-to video using the Italian Cheese & Herb flavor.  I created these addictive Stuffed Italian Cheese & Herb Meatballs!!


These stuffed meatballs are seasoned enough to be eaten as appetizers or served along with rice or potatoes. Yet, they are mild enough to compliment your favorite sauce.

I hope that you enjoy these quick & easy Stuffed Italian Cheese & Herb Meatballs just as much as my family did!


Watch me make these Stuffed Italian Cheese & Herb Meatballs from start to finish!!

    I had to sub a lot of items but they meatballs were good on a roll.
    I used breadcrumbs,sharp cheese, and breakfast sausage as the subs.

    Do you think it will turn out the same if you use Italian Bread Crumbs instead of croutons?
