Meatball and Rice Dinner
Here is my interpretation.
Giant meatball Dinner
Ingredients:
1 can diced tomatoes
1 can beef broth
1 cup rice, divided
1 lb ground beef
1 egg
1 tsp basil
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
Mix the beef with the seasoning, egg, and 1/2 cup rice.
Roll into meatballs into large balls. For one pound, Paula only made 9 meatballs, and place in 9x13 pan.
Place broth, can of tomatoes, and remaining rice in bottom of pan.
Place in oven at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
and done!!!
They ended up with this really yummy crunchy top and were sooooo moist in the middle.
I thought they would be really great with some cheese on top, you know, if your into that sort of thing. Which I am, Always. Isn't everything better with cheese? Just a thought.
Happy cooking everyone!

Thanks so much for stopping by! If you liked Yuen Yarn, check out some of our older posts, or
I made this for dinner tonight but only had ground turkey. I made it pretty much the same only using chicken broth rather than beef and added feta cheese to the meet mixture.....delish!

I'm always stuck as to what to serve as a veggie dish with this...any ideas?
ReplyDeleteSorry about not getting back to you sooner, I tried to leave a reply about a week ago but apparently it never posted! So here goes again…
ReplyDeleteI like to serve this meal with either a big salad, or some other green veggie, i.e. peas, green beans, etc. Noodles are always a hit at our house, even though there is rice in the dish, and as with any good Italian flavored meal, bread! Garlic bread is a hit, cheesy garlic bread, or just plain with butter. What is it about italian meals that require bread. If you are trying to avoid carbs though I would go with a nice wedge salad!
Hope this helps, and posts too!
