This is a simple but tasty recipe that Alex enjoyed preparing. Four ingredients, 1 mixing bowl, two pans, that's it. The ingredients:
- Frozen meatballs - be careful, many brands taste rubbery, but the Great Value homestyle meatballs from Walmart are great.
- Instant rice
- Barbecue sauce - for the sweet and sour meatballs I prefer Famous Dave's Sweet and Zesty, 28 ounce size.
- 1 can jellied cranberry sauce
Instructions:
- Prepare 5 cups (dry) rice following the package instructions.
- Mix 3/4 of the barbecue sauce (all of the sauce if you want a juicier final sauce) and the cranberry sauce.
- Place the meatballs in a single layer in a large skillet and cover with the sauce. Cook until the meatballs are heated through, approximately 20 minutes.
- Place servings of rice on plates and cover with the hot meatballs and sauce.
Notes
- The Famous Dave's Sweet and Zesty barbecue sauce is a little spicy. some kids may prefer a milder sauce.
- Alex prefers her meatballs and sauce to the side of rice instead of on top of the rice. Mixed or separate, this is a yummy recipe.
