In a large bowl, add minced beef.

Add eggs, flour, dried basil, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the beef.

Mix all the ingredients together until well combined.

Take a lump of the meat mixture and flatten it in your hand.

Place a cube of cheddar cheese in the center of the flattened meat and shape the meat back into a round meatball.

Repeat the process until all the meat and cheese are used up.
