Cheesy Meatbal Skillet

I got this recipe out of the Kraft Food & Family Magazine, Holiday 2006 issue. All the family liked it, which is such a nice thing to have happen at dinner time!

Prep: 10 minutes | Total: 35 minutes
1lb. lean ground beef
10 Saltine crackers, crushed (about 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup Italian dressing, divided
1 beef bouillon cube, dissolved in 1/2 cup boiling water (I just used some beef broth)
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Mix meat, crackers and half of the dressing until well blended. Shape into 23 (1-inch) meatballs.

Heat remaining dressing in nonstick skillet on medium-high heat. Add meatballs; cook 8 minutes or until browned, turning occasionally. Add bouillon; simmer 5 minutes. or until meatballs are cooked through.

Stir in sour cream; cook 30 seconds or until heated through but not simmering, stirring frequently. Remove from heat. Sprinkle with cheese; cover. Let stand 5 minutes or until cheese melts.

Makes 4 servings, 1/4 recipe each.

Patti- Do you think I could use Ritz crackers instead of saltines?

Ritz crackers should work fine for this one.
