Meatball Stew- Simple One Pot Meal

Meatballs

3 eggs, beaten

2/3 c. bread crumbs

1/3 c. parmesan cheese

pepper to taste

1/2 lb ground beef, 1 lb ground chicken

OR JUST USE FROZEN ;)

To the pot add with meatballs add

4 med potatoes, chunked

3 sliced medium carrots

1 1/2 c. chopped celery (3 stalks?)

1 med onion, wedged

1 zucchini, diced

1 clove garlic, minced

4-6 mushrooms, sliced

1 envelope onion soup mix or make your own *(recipe below)

Water, if you want it to really be more stew like add a minimal amount of water. I added 10 cups and it was great. You can also add beef or veggie stock instead of water for more depth of flavor.

10-20 snap pea pods, cut in half and added the last 10 minutes of cooking

Simmer 30 minutes until veggies are tender
