Instructions

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.
