Sweet and Sour-licious Meatballs

Thanks to my great friend Amy, I was able to make something new for dinner tonight without have to resort to spaghetti.  These sweet and sour meatballs are fantastic!!!  I served them with brown rice and peas.  However, after dinner Amy told me they are good served with green beans. So next time, I'll try it w/ green beans.  Here's the recipe I used:

2 lbs ground beef, thawed

Italian style bread crumbs  ( I don't measure, but it was probably about 3/4 c.)

Garlic Powder

Onion Powder

1 Egg

1 bottle sweet and sour sauce

A splash of barbecue sauce

Salt and Pepper

Mix all of that together like you would meat loaf.  Preheat the oven to 375.  Cover a cookie sheet w/ some foil.  Make little meatballs and place on the foil.  I should have lightly sprayed my foil w/ some spray because my meat was very lean and the meatballs kind of got stuck in some places.  Bake them for 35-40 minutes until done.  Then put them in a pan on the stove w/ some sweet and sour sauce (you can also add in some barbecue sauce).  I used Maui Mountain Sweet n Sour (what Amy uses).  Let the sauce get hot and then serve them over rice.  They are wonderful - a great twist to meat loaf.  Hope you like them!
