Ingredients:
For the Meatballs
1 pound lean ground beef
1⁄2 cup long grain rice
3 cloves chopped garlic
1⁄2 small chopped onion
1⁄2 cup water
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
Making the Sauce
15 ounces tomato sauce
1 cup water
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons chopped parsley for garnish
Additional Notes:
Feel free to customize the seasonings in the meatball mixture according to your taste preferences. You can add herbs like parsley, oregano, or basil for extra flavor.
For a healthier twist, you can use lean ground turkey or chicken instead of beef.
To ensure the meatballs hold their shape while cooking, it's essential to thoroughly mix the meat mixture and allow it to rest for a few minutes before shaping them.
If you prefer a spicier tomato sauce, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to give it a kick.
Serve the Penny Pincher Porcupine Meatballs over cooked pasta, rice, or with a side of crusty bread for a complete and satisfying meal.
This recipe is perfect for meal prep or batch cooking. You can make a large batch of meatballs and freeze them for later use. Just thaw them in the refrigerator overnight before reheating.
Feel free to garnish the dish with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh herbs for an extra touch of flavor and presentation.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the microwave or on the stovetop for a quick and delicious meal.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different ingredients or add vegetables like bell peppers or spinach to the sauce for added nutrition and flavor.
Enjoy these Penny Pincher Porcupine Meatballs in Rich Tomato Sauce as a comforting and budget-friendly meal that will surely become a family favorite!
