Jumbo Meatballs

This recipe is one I got on kraftfoods.com. I made it as meatloaf, because with my exzema I didn't want to handle to meat too long. Anyway, it was super tasty and I made it with elk meat. It was really good even Dallin tried it and loved it. I think we can add meatloaf to his list of foods that he WILL eat. Yeah!
Here's the recipe;

1 pkg. stove top,(or any) stuffing
1/2 c. hot water
1 egg
1/4 cup ranch dressing
1 lb. lean ground beef
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/3 ketchup

Preheat oven to 375*, combine stuffing mix, water, egg, and dressing until moistened. Add meat and cheese; mix well. Shape into 8 in. balls, or put into loaf pan.
Place meatballs on greased pan, spread meatballs or loaf with ketchup.
Bake 30 min. or until cooked through(160*).
Suggestion; Serve with cooked rice and streamed broccoli. Enjoy!
