Porcupine Meatballs With Chunky Tomato Sauce Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Porcupine meatballs have long been a popular family recipe, and the most popular version is probably the campbell's soup version made with tomato soup. I add diced tomatoes and chili powder to the sauce in my recipe which gives them chunky texture and extra flavor. I use long-grain rice, but partially cooked brown rice may be used as well. Or use packaged partially cooked rice (like uncle ben's ready rice) or minute rice if you're pressed for time. The meatballs are cooked in the sauce, so use a good, lean ground beef in the recipe. Serve the meatballs with boiled or mashed potatoes and corn, peas, or broccoli. See alsocrock pot party meatballs with tangy saucesouthern grape jelly meatballs.
