Prep

Ready In
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Place potatoes in a 15x10-inch baking pan. Drizzle with 2 teaspoons of the oil and sprinkle with 2 of the garlic cloves, the rosemary, ½ teaspoon of the salt and ¼ teaspoon of the black pepper; toss to coat. Roast 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place oats in a food processor. Cover and process to a coarse powder. In a large bowl combine oat powder, egg white, onion, Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper, 1 of the garlic cloves, ¼ teaspoon of the salt and ¼ teaspoon of the black pepper. Add ground beef; mix well. Using ¼ cup mixture for each, shape into eight meatballs.
- In a medium bowl combine the remaining 2 teaspoon oil, 1 clove garlic and ¼ teaspoon each salt and black pepper. Add green beans, toss to coat.
- Push potatoes to one end of baking pan. Arrange meatballs in other end and mound beans in center of pan.
- Roast 20 to 25 minutes more or until meatballs are done (160°F) and vegetables are tender, rotating pan after 10 minutes and spooning pasta sauce over meatballs the last 2 to 3 minutes of roasting.
- Sprinkle meatballs with cheese and basil. If desired, serve with additional pasta sauce.
- People with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity should use oats that are labeled "gluten-free," as oats are often cross-contaminated with wheat and barley.
