RECIPE OF THE WEEK - Tim's Favorite

YUM YUM!

SWEET AND SOUR MEATBALLS OVER RICE

Ingredients for the sauce:

1 can pineapple tidbits 

1 1/2 tbsp. cornstarch 

1/4 c. brown sugar

2 tbsp. water

1/4 c. white vinegar

1 tsp. soy sauce

15-20 frozen homestyle meatballs

2 c. Minute Rice, cooked 

-Mix the cornstarch and water to a paste over medium heat.  Add pineapple juice (reserve the tidbits), vinegar, br. sugar, & soy sauce.  Mix over medium heat until thickened.  Add frozen meatballs (or homemade if you're really gung ho), cover, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10-15 min. until tender.  Put over the rice and enjoy.

-Possibilities are endless.  Use chicken, pork, beef, or use it with your favorite Asian dish.  If you are a pineapple fan you can stir in some of the reserved pineapple tidbits at the end of the cooking time.
