Cheesy, Meatball, Veggie Casserole created by Chef shapeweaver

My SO is trying to cut down on carbs and I'm not,so I wanted to come up with a recipe that both of us would enjoy.If desired, you can brown the meatballs for a better flavor.The time for browning the meatballs isn't included in the cooking time. The "ZAAR" database doesn't have the carb count for the meatballs, and the vegetable blend, so my SO and I figured the amount of carbs for 6 servings would be 13 grams for each serving. So if you decide to try this, I hope you enjoy.Submitted to "ZAAR" on June 2,2008.

I can not really review this meal because I didn't have the same ingredients. I used it as an idea! I made homemade meatballs, blanched fresh broccoli and cauliflower. I used a can of progresso cream of mushroom soup and added chopped onions and 10 slices of ultra thin cheese which is all I had on hand. I baked it as directed.
