I've used it in homemade spaghetti sauce instead of meat.

Sweet & Sour Meat Balls.

Add to the ground meat, 1/4 to1/2 ground gingern (optional), 1/4 cup bread crumbs, 1/2 cup minced onion, 1 Tbsp of soy sauce, and 1 tsp of sugar. Mix all ingrediants and form into balls.

I cheat and put them in a mini muffin pan. Bake for about 30 to 40 minutes till cooked.

While meat is cooking, slice 1 or 1/2 onion and Bell pepper, place in a bowl. In that bowl add in one can of chunky pineapple, minced garlic, minced ginger (optional) and one bottle of kraft sweet and sour sauce.

When meat is done. Stir fry veggie mix in about 1 Tbsp of oil for about 2 min and then add in the meat balls. Cook about 3 to 5 min more and then add the whole bottle of sauce. Cook on low for about 5 min more on low heat. Serve over steamed rice and enjoy.

If you have any questions my e-mail is mpoteet@traxxas.com

The seasonings used are off the top of my head but use what you are comfortable with, regular salt, pepper, and garlic powder work just as well. I would add bread crumbs to make them hold better. Of course you could always use what you have on hand. I usually make my own crumb, I use the ends of the breads for that. Put the bread end in a food processor and then transfer to a cookie sheet. Broil them for about 3 to 5 min on about 450 degrees f and then mix with spoon or spatulan and broil once more till lightly browned.

Of course you could do Itlian Meatballs Hoggies and they are just as good. Have fun!

Enjoy,

Marie

Sorry for the beep. It is the soup you find at the Olive garden. Obviously I need to work more on my spelling than on my recipes.

Sorry for that.

I used to have a recipe for Shrimp & Lobster Sauce that called for ground pork. I'll have to see if I can find it.

I just make patties out of it and grill them. It makes great burgers.

Stuffing (can use to stuff the bird or eat alone, is DELISH!) Sorry I eye ball everything.

1 or 2 stocks celery, sliced VERY thin
1 small onion diced
1/2 - 1 bag bread crumbs (depends on how much you like breading)
1-2 cans chicken broth (depends on how dry you like it) can also sub out for chicken noodle soup if you do not have chicken broth
We mix 1/2 beef with 1/2 ground pork (or you can just use the pork, have done this many a times)
Olive oil or butter

We usually cook the meat in a pot. Add either butter or olive oil to the pot. Warm up pot and slowly add your celery until it starts to get tender (this keeps the stuffing from tasting just like celery), once the celery starts to tenderize add your onions. Add meat and brown DO NOT DRAIN, then add bread crumbs and broth. Cook until everything meshes together. Makes a wonderful holiday stuffing.

My homemade lasagna recipe calls for a mixture of pork and beef. 1/2 pound of pork to 1 pound of beef. It makes it just enough different that people as always wondering "what's in this"?
