To a large mixing bowl, add ground turkey, green chilies, ground oats, egg, oregano, garlic powder, salt and cumin. Use your hands to thoroughly combine ingredients.
Next, press each cheese cube into cookie scoop with turkey mixture and then mold the meat mixture around to completely cover the cheese. Makes 16 meatballs.
Place meatballs in a greased baking pan. Pour salsa verde or tomatillo salsa over the meatballs, then cover pan with aluminum foil to seal. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F and bake covered for 25 minutes, remove foil, and bake uncovered for 5 minutes.

Notes
You can use pepper jack cheese sticks or cut a block of pepper jack cheese. Use 4 cheese sticks, cut into 4 cubes each, about 1/2 inch in size. If you can't find cheese sticks, use a block of cheese and cut it into 1/2" cubes.
