Sweet and Sour Meatballs

Meatballs:
1lb Ground Turkey(or Ground Beef)
1 Egg
1 TBSP Cornstarch
1 tsp Salt
3 tsp Chopped Onion(I used red onion and it was good!)
Dash of Pepper

Put all ingredients in a bowl and mix together with your hands. It will be somewhat sticky. Form into balls .
Brown the meatballs in a small amount of oil.

When cooked through, remove from frying pan and set aside. Now for the sauce...

Sauce:
1 Can Pineapple Tidbits and the juice
3TBSP Cornstarch
6 TBSP Cold Water
1 TBSP Soy Sauce
3 TBSP Vinegar
1/2 C Sugar

In a small bowl, combine cold water and cornstarch, mix well so that when added to other ingredients it will not be lumpy.
In the frying pan, mix remaining ingredients and the cornstarch mixture together until it thickens. Once sauce is thick, add the Meatballs back into sauce and heat through. Serve over Rice and enjoy!

Recipe Bio: I was able to get 2.5lbs of Free Jennie O ground turkey. I didn't know what to do with it to make it tasty for the whole family so I went searching for a good recipe. This one is originally for ground beef but I thought "Hey, that should work for Turkey too!" And it did. The whole family enjoyed it. We had it over brown rice and stirred in steamed broccoli. I also doubled the batch and froze half for a meal in the near future. If my kids had it their way, that would be tomorrow~
