Ultra Simple Porcupine Meatballs in Tomato Sauce image

I looked around and all of the porcupine meatball recipes that have been posted include extra and (I think) unnecessary ingredients like Worcestershire sauce. This is the recipe my family has been using since I was a kid. They're very easy to make, taste great with ground beef or turkey, and freeze well. A couple of notes: if you use onion, chop it so it isn't only about double the size of the rice (or less). If it's too much larger it might not be as easy to form the meatballs and could be weird to bite in to. The rice you use should be uncooked Minute Rice, the kind that cooks in like 5 minutes or so.

Categories     Meatballs

Time 1h5m

Yield 36 meatballs

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 (8 ounce) cans condensed tomato soup
2 lbs ground beef
1 cup rice
1/2 cup chopped onion (optional)
1 egg

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Combine meat, rice, onion, egg and one can of soup.
  • Roll into meatballs that are approximately 2 to 3 inches in diameter and put in a 9x13 inch glass baking dish.
  • Combine second can of tomato soup with water (only about half as much as you would to make it into tomato soup) and pour half over the meatballs in baking dish.
  • Bake 45 minutes. Make sure you're keeping an eye on them. Cut one meatball in half to determine if it is cooked all the way through.
  • Heat remaining tomato soup and water mixture and pour over meatballs when serving.

I made these meatballs in my slow cooker and they were perfect. I just browned them in a skillet first and then added them to the slow cooker with the sauce. They cooked on low for 8 hours and they were fall-apart tender.

These meatballs are a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. I sneak in some chopped carrots and celery into the meatballs and they never notice.

I froze some of these meatballs for later and they reheated very well. I just popped them in the microwave for a few minutes and they were as good as fresh.

I made these meatballs with ground turkey instead of beef and they were still very good. I think this recipe is versatile and can be made with any type of ground meat.

These meatballs are a great way to use up leftover rice. I always have some leftover rice in the fridge and this is a great way to use it up.
