Porcupine Meatballs

• 1/2 cup uncooked long grain rice
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 pound ground beef
• 2-8 ounce cans tomato sauce
• 1 cup water
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

1. In a bowl combine rice, water, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and ground beef.
2. Shape into 1-1/2-in. balls. In a large skillet, brown meatballs and drain off any fat. (If you use really lean beef than you may need to add some oil to the pan.)
3. Combine tomato sauce, water, brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce and pour over meatballs. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 1 hour or until meatballs are done.
