•1 - bag Maggio Fancy Shredded Cheese, Italian
•1 - 1 pound package of ground sirloin
•2 - cups 4C Bread Crumbs, Flavored

While cooking pasta, following package directions, place ground sirloin, bread crumbs, eggs and 1/2 bag shredded cheese in a bowl. Mix well, and roll into small meatballs.
Pour olive oil into a skillet and cook the meatballs, 5 minutes per side.
Place the cooked pasta into a Pyrex dish, and add sauce, meatballs, onions, peppers and mushrooms. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and bake 25 minutes at 375 degrees.
