Hawaiian Meatballs

Hawaiian Meatballs

1 lb lean hamburger

1 lb jimmy dean regular sausage

Salt and pepper

(I like to just use the frozen meatballs from the store, so I don’t use the above ingredients)

2C ketchup

2T. lemon juice

½ C brown sugar

½ chili sauce

2 T soy sauce

1 can crushed pineapple

1 green pepper, cut into chunks

1 C grated carrots

Mix hamburger, sausage, salt and pepper. Form into ¾-inch balls. Brown in frying pan. Remove from pan and let drain while making sauce. (If making your own meatballs, otherwise I just put them in the oven frozen). Sauce: Mix ketchup, lemon juice, chile sauce, soy sauce and brown sugar. Pour into casserole dish. Add meatballs. Cook at 350˚ for 30 minutes (if using the frozen store bought meatballs, add 10 to 15 minutes). Then add pineapple, green peppers and carrots. Cook another 5 to 10 minutes. Serve over rice or use as an appetizer.
