1. Mix all of your meatball ingredients together in one bowl and all of your filling ingredients together in another bowl
2. Shape each ball into a “circle” and press an indent into the center of it
3. Roll up some of your filling mix into a smaller ball and place that into the center of your meatball
4. Shape your meat around your filling until it’s completely sealed off
5. Roll each ball in some Bread Crumbs and then coat them with some cooking spray
