03 Method

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2

Prepare the dipping sauce by stirring ranch dressing and 1-1/2 teaspoons of the taco seasoning together in a small bowl until combined. Cover and refrigerate.
Step 3

Combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, cheese, eggs, ranch seasoning and the remainder of the taco seasoning from the packet in a large bowl.
Step 4

Form into 1-1/2 inch balls (about 2 tablespoons of mixture for each ball) and place on the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until meatballs are browned, fully cooked and no longer pink in the center.
Step 5

Sprinkle with fresh chopped cilantro, if desired and serve with dipping sauce.
