Meatball Stir Fry and Rice

Meatball Stir Fry and Rice

24 frozen meatballs
1/2-1  green pepper, chopped
1/2-1 can pineapple chunks
1 cup sweet and sour sauce


Place meatballs in pan.  Heat 6-7 minutes.  Add green pepper and pineapple and sauce.  Cook another 6-7 minutes.  Serve over rice.

This sounds easy, and it was, but it wasn't very tasty.  I am writing this from memory because I misplaced the recipe I used from Mr. Yoshida's sweet and sour sauce!  We thought it needed more sauce, for sure.  It was just okay-not great.  But maybe it will spark a memory of a better recipe you have hiding in your cupboards!  This is the tough part of a blog like this-not all my dinners would be good enough to serve you!  But maybe we can help each other.  If you have a better, similar recipe please pass it along!

  2. Sure! I forgot to add that when I make this, I double the Catalina dressing, apricot jam, and soy sauce. Also, to cut down on sugar, I use sugar-free apricot jam.
