  •  1/2 cup ORTEGA Salsa - Homestyle Recipe (Mild)

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 can (16-oz.) stewed tomatoes, broken up
  • 1 can (13 3/4-oz) ready-to-serve beef broth
  • 1/2 cup ORTEGA Salsa - Homestyle Recipe (Mild)
  • 3/4 tsps. ground coriander
  • 3/4 tsps. cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

Heat tomatoes, broth and salsa to a boil in large saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 25 minutes. Meanwhile, combine ground beef with coriander, cumin, and salt, mixing lightly but thoroughly. Pinch off 1-inch pieces of beef mixture to make about 32 free-form meatballs; cook in heavy nonstick skillet over medium-heat, shaking pan occasionally to brown meatballs evenly. As meatballs are browned, add to tomato mixture. Add zucchini during last 10 minutes of cooking time. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and serve with corn bread, if desired.
