Slightly Sweet and Sour Meatballs

I thought I would share this 'slightly sweet and sour' meatball recipe that I concocted. It's great with some fluffy, steamed white rice and only takes about a half hour to make.

1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 tsp each of salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tbs worcestershire sauce


Sauce

1 tbs brown sugar
1 tbs white vinegar
1/2 cup tomato ketchup
1 cup water
1 tsp corn starch

Mix the first set of (non-sauce) ingredients together . Form into 1 1/2 inch balls and brown them in hot oil. Mix the sauce ingredients together and pour over the meatballs. Cover and simmer for about 20 minutes until the meatballs are cooked.

So I decided to go back to my regular hairdresser yesterday. Back in November there was a mishap which was forcing me to reconsider. He seemed to be extra careful and even bought me a coffee from McDonald's. He was celebrating Orthodox Christmas that evening.

  4. Thanks for the sweet and sour meatballs recipe, sounds delicious.

    That article on early bedtime and teen depression was very interesting as well. Makes sense too. I always have a great day if I've had a night sleep. :)
