Steps

1

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
2

Mix ground meat, cooked rice, garlic, 1/4 c parsley, egg, salt, 1 tsp paprika, cumin, pepper, oregano, and olive oil in a bowl using a fork. Portion mixture with a 1/4 cup scoop and use your (wet) hands to shape into round meatballs then place onto prepared baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven until brown, about 15 minutes.
3

Pour chicken stock into large saucepan. Add potatoes, carrots, zucchini, onion and tomatoes and bring to boil. Reduce to a medium simmer, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes.
4

Transfer meatballs to broth. Turn heat to high. Once broth returns to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, cover and cook 20 minutes or until meatballs are no longer pink in center and vegetables are tender.
5

Serve over rice and sprinkle cilantro over top. Add avocado to top (optional).

All done! Enjoy 🙂
