How To Make baked porcupine meatballs

Step 1

Mix ground beef with rice, 1/2 cup of water, chopped onion, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and pepper. Save dishes and do this in the pan..

Step 2

shape porcupine ground beef mixture by tablespoon into 1 1/2 inch balls, and place into ungreased 9x13 baking dish. You can also press mixture into bottom of pan and using a spatula, separate into squares, leaving about 1/2 inch between the rows. Meat squares taste the same as meatballs but don't roll off the plate as easily.

Cover and bake at 350*in oven for about 45 minutes. Uncover and bake porcupine meatballs 15-20 minutes longer.... Serves 4-6
