Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, mix the ground beef, white rice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, ground black pepper, brown sugar, and diced onion. Mix well until blended.
- Add the egg and mix until it is incorporated into the mixture.
- Using a medium size cookie scoop, scoop the meat mixture into balls.
- Roll in the palm of your hands and place on a plate.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Warm an oven-proof skillet on medium heat and brown the meatballs for 2 minutes on each side, adding oil if needed to keep the meat from sticking.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together water, beef broth, and tomato soup.
- Once the meatballs are browned, pour the soup mixture over the meatballs.
- Bake covered for 30 minutes.
- Uncover and use a spoon to baste the sauce over the meatballs. Cook for an additional 20-25 minutes or until the meatballs are cooked with an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
- Serve over cooked rice with a vegetable side dish!
Notes
- This dish can be prepped through browning the meatballs and then stored in the fridge for up to 4 days. You can also freeze uncooked meatballs in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months.
- Rewarm leftovers in a pan with a hint of water to create moisture for 3 to 4 minutes or until heated through, or warm in the oven in a covered dish.
- Substitute an equal amount of tomato sauce for the tomato soup if needed. You'll want to add more seasonings if using plain tomato sauce.
- Just a vegetable side dish or an easy spinach salad even the kids can make is the perfect side for this tasty meal!
