Directions

Preparation


1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine meatball ingredients and mix until well-combined. Form 1-inch meatballs and arrange about 1 inch apart on the baking sheet. Bake in oven for 10-12 minutes, or until cooked through.
2. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and saute 3-5 minutes, or until translucent. Add carrots and garlic and saute for 3-5 more minutes.
3. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, beef broth, chili powder, cumin and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to medium. Simmer uncovered for 7-10 minutes.
4. Add meatballs, black beans, corn and zucchini and simmer an additional 5 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper, as desired. Serve immediately with toppings of your choice.
