Meet the Cook: There were seven of us children when I was a girl, and I was the second oldest. I began cooking as soon as I could reach the stove and stir a pot. I'm a widow, so I usually make this for large gatherings. It's so quick and easy. The recipe was given to me when my husband and I were caring for foster children who enjoyed beef dishes. I've been fixing it ever since. -Shirley Max, Cape Girardeau, Missouri Ingredients:
2 pounds ground turkey or beef |
1-1/2 cups uncooked instant rice |
1 medium onion, chopped |
2 eggs, lightly beaten |
1-1/2 teaspoons garlic salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1 package (10 ounces) frozen brussels sprouts |
2 cans (15 ounces each) tomato sauce |
1 cup water |
1 teaspoon dried thyme |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the first six ingredients and mix well. Shape a scant 1/4 cupful around each frozen brussels sprout to form a meatball.
2. Place in an ungreased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking dish. Combine tomato sauce, water and thyme; pour over meatballs. Cover and bake at 350° for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until meatballs are cooked through. Yield: 8-10 servings.
