Cheesy, Meatball, Veggie Casserole image

My SO is trying to cut down on carbs and I'm not,so I wanted to come up with a recipe that both of us would enjoy.If desired, you can brown the meatballs for a better flavor.The time for browning the meatballs isn't included in the cooking time. The "ZAAR" database doesn't have the carb count for the meatballs, and the vegetable blend, so my SO and I figured the amount of carbs for 6 servings would be 13 grams for each serving. So if you decide to try this, I hope you enjoy.Submitted to "ZAAR" on June 2,2008.

I'm not a fan of bell peppers, so I substituted zucchini instead. It turned out great!

The meatballs were a bit dry for my taste, but the overall flavor of the casserole was good. I think I'll try adding some extra sauce next time.
