Porcupine Meatballs
Porcupine Meatballs
1 ½ lbs. ground beef
½ c. cooked rice (I use Minute Rice)
1 tsp. Salt
½ tsp. Black pepper
1 medium onion, chopped fine
1 smallish green pepper, diced fine
1 cup tomato paste (I use the 6 oz. can since that’s the size it comes in)
I medium sized can tomatoes or tomato juice (12 oz.)
Cook rice and set aside to cool first. Mix the first seven ingredients together. Shape into medium to large sized meatballs and place in heavy skillet. Cover with the canned tomatoes or tomato juice and cook over low to medium low for about 45 minutes.
This is my mother’s recipe and she took Porcupine Balls to our family Christmas dinners on her side of the family for as long as I can remember. This year, I made them in her stead.
