Waiki Meatballs Recipe

Today's Workout:
-Sweatin to the Oldies III, done on my rebounder w/ weighted gloves
-8 min ab w/o from Kelsies Kettlebell w/o
*total w/o time 60 min + stretch

I found this Richard Simmons VHS at the thrift store this weekend for $1 and couldnt pass it up. Richard is always good for a laugh (or 2) and he has nice upbeat music in his w/o's. I was wanting some variety for my rebounding w/o's and thought this would adapt well-it did.

Today's Recipe: Waikiki Meatballs. I served these over brown rice w/ a side salad, and corn on the cob. Very good!

Meatballs:
1 egg
5 oz evaporated milk
1 cup oats (recipe called for quick oats but I used regular and had not issues)
1 cup chopped onion
1 tsp salt
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp pepper
3/4 lb extra lean ground beef
3/4 lb ground turkey or chicken breast

Combine egg, milk, oats, onion, & spices in a large bowl. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into balls and place in greased pan, bake uncovered at 350* for 45 min or until cooked thouroghly.

Pineapple Sauce:
1 20 oz can pineapple tidbits in juice
1 8 oz can pineapple juice
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup splenda
1/2 cup lemon jice
4 Tbs cornstarch
4 tbs soy sauce
1/2 cup sauteed onion
meatballs
Drain the juice from the pineapple tidbits (reserve pineapple tidbits in can), combine with the can of juice, sugars, lemon juice, cornstarch, & soy sauce in saucepan. Cook & stir well until sauce boils & thickens. Fold in sauteed onion, pineapple tidbits, and meatballs.
