Cook meatballs in oil in 12-inch skillet over medium heat until light brown on all sides; remove from skillet. Drain fat from skillet.

Prepare Vegetables Provencale. Top with meatballs. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer until vegetables are crisp-tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese.
