Waikiki Meatballs

I love the sweet taste of pineapple in these meatballs! These are yummy served on rice.

1 1/2 lb. ground beef
2/3 cup cracker crumbs (saltines)
1/3 c. minced onion
1 egg
1/4 c.milk
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ginger

Mix ground beef with other ingredients and form balls. Bake on a cookie sheet at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until cooked.

Sauce:
1 cup pineapple chunks
2 Tbsp. cornstarch
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 Tbsp. soy sauce
1/3 c. vinegar
1/3 c. chopped pepper

Drain and set pineapple aside (saving the juice!!). Mix cornstarch and brown sugar. Stir in reserved pineapple juice, pineapple chunks, vinegar, soy sauce and pepper. Cook until thick. Pour over meatballs. Serve over rice.
