– After 30 minutes, remove the foil and sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the top of the meatballs and potatoes.
– Return the dish to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the meatballs are cooked through.
5. **Serve and Enjoy:**
