Preparation

Step 1

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, rice, 1/2 cup of water and onion. Blend in salt, celery salt, garlic powder and pepper. Mix well. Shape into 1 1/2 inch balls.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the meatballs; drain fat.

In an 11x7 inch baking dish, combine the tomato sauce and 1 cup of water. Place the browned meatballs into the tomato sauce, turning to coat well.

Cover and bake in a preheated oven for 45 minutes. Uncover, and cook for an additional 15 minutes.

You can find celery salt in the seasoning section of your grocery store. Usually any seasoning is just for taste. I rarely add black pepper to my cooking cause I don't like it.

I have been looking for this recipe. My ex MIL used to make these and I miss them.
