2 Add the Meatballs
Finely crush crackers. Combine ground beef, crackers, half the mayonnaise (reserve remaining for topping), garlic salt, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a mixing bowl. Form mixture into six evenly-sized meatballs. Carefully remove tray from oven. Remove foil. Top broccoli with a pinch of salt, if desired, then push to one side. Tray will be hot! Use a utensil. Place meatballs in empty side of tray.

3 Bake the Dish
Bake uncovered in hot oven until meatballs reach a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 20-25 minutes. Carefully remove from oven. Top broccoli with cheese. Rest, 3 minutes. While meal rests, combine caramelized onion jam, remaining mayonnaise, and a pinch of salt and pepper, if desired, in another mixing bowl. Stir broccoli. Top meatballs with caramelized onion mixture and crispy onions. Bon appétit!
