Back when I was a kid there was a dish that Mom made once in a while that we knew only as “Porcupine Balls”, mostly because that’s what Dad always called them. Since then I’ve figured out that they were most likely a form of sweedish meatballs. This is another recipe that could use ground turkey instead of ground beef and very likely most people wouldn’t be able to tell the difference

Combine 1lb ground beef, 1/4 cup uncooked rice, 1 slightly beaten egg, a tablespoon of parsley, two tablespoons of finely chopped onion, a half teaspoon of salt, a “dash” of pepper, and 1/4 can of tomato soup.

Mix thoroughly and shape the mixture into about 20 small balls and place in a skillet.

Mix the other 3/4 can of tomato soup, a half cup of water, and a teaspoon of Worstershire sauce and pour this over the meatballs.

Bring it to a boil then reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 40 minutes, stirring frequently.
