Ingredients
  

For the Meatballs

  • 1 lb ground beef lean
  • 0.5 lb ground pork
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper

For the Mashed Potatoes

  • 2 lb Yukon Gold potatoes peeled and quartered
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 0.5 cup milk warmed
  • 0.5 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
  • 2 tbsp chives chopped

For Assembly

  • 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded, for topping

Instructions
 

Prepare the Meatballs

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, mix ground beef, ground pork, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Roll into evenly sized balls and place on the baking sheet.
  • Bake meatballs for 20-25 minutes until cooked through and lightly browned. Set aside.

Make the Mashed Potatoes

  • Boil Yukon Gold potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 10-15 minutes. Drain well.
  • Mash potatoes with butter, warmed milk, sour cream, cheddar cheese, and chives until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Assemble and Bake

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a 9x13 inch baking dish, spread mashed potatoes evenly across the bottom.
  • Arrange meatballs evenly on top of the mashed potatoes. Sprinkle with 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the dish is heated through.

Notes

  • 1- Use lean ground meat for tender meatballs.
  • 2- Adjust seasoning in the meatball mixture to taste before rolling.
  • 3- Serve warm with a side of fresh vegetables or a salad.
