Step 1
In a bowl, mix 1 lb ground beef, 1 egg, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Form into 12 small meatballs.
Step 2
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add meatballs and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, add 1 sliced onion, 2 sliced carrots, and 1 sliced bell pepper. Cook over medium, stirring, until vegetables are tender-crisp, about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Return meatballs to the skillet with the vegetables. Cook for 2-3 minutes until heated through and vegetables are soft but still bright. Serve hot.
