Sweet and Sour Meatballs

{source}

These meatballs could actually be used in any meatball-needing-recipe {ie spaghetti and meatballs?}, but they are extra good with this sweet and sour sauce.  Pretty easy to assemble, too.  They can also be made for appetizers for entertaining, just serve with little toothpick.

{What you need}

1 pound ground beef {or turkey!}

2 tablespoons dehydrated onion

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1 egg, beaten

1/4 cup bread crumbs

{sauce}

3/4 cup packed brown sugar

3 tablespoons flour

1/2 cups water or pineapple juice

1/4 cup white vinegar

3 tablespoons soy sauce

In a medium bowl, combine meatball ingredients.  Use a cookie scoop to shape meet into 1-inch balls and place on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil and sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.  Place under the broiler in your oven for 5-7 minutes or until the meatballs begin to brown.  

In a large saucepan, whisk together the sauce ingredients and bring to a boil.  Add the meatballs and reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring often.
